Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Thanks to Mom

Mom birthed the cutest baby girl,
Who in her crib would dance divine,
With a head full of golden curl.
Mom took this as a destined sign,
And into dance school did enroll
The three year old, who caught the eye
Of Hollywooders with control.
Golden girl did electrify.
Mom's perserverence did assure
Her little girl successful, true,
Oversaw costume and coiffure.
Curl count had to be 52.

Shirley Temple found filmdom fame,
Thanks to Mom - Gertrude was her name.
