The Giraffe’s Dilemma
by Marcia N. Lynch
Shall I wear my bowtie
Right under my chin?
Or should I wear it down there
Where my neck begins?
It’s a long dilemma,
And why you never spot
A giraffe in a bowtie —
Where do we tie the knot?
About the Poet
Marcia N. Lynch’s experience as a storyteller comes from working as a children’s film editor and from having been written into the story of Christ’s redemption. She studied sculpture at Mount Holyoke College. Sculpting, like film editing, requires an artist to cut out anything that does not relate to the primary subject matter, and these two disciplines have honed her storytelling skills. Marcia lives in Arlington, Virginia with her husband of 38 years and has three grown children. She surrendered to Christ in 1975.
