Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Will Bella Walk?

The Amazing Boldinos, we

Are funambulists known worldwide.

Famed tightrope walking family,

Generations have walked in pride.

My youngest daughter, Bella, is

Now of the age for trying out

To be in the family biz.

She's hopeful, but I have some doubt.

Since her mother died from a fall,

Bella has seemed to not be sure

Tightrope walking is the right call.

I sense something's missing in her.

I told her she needed more grit.

Does she have the stomach for it?
