Here is an example from the story "Marigolds."

Miss Lottie
Old Witch to children running wild
Ancient, bent, drawn, dark
Lover of marigolds, a mindless John Burke, and peace
Who believed she could find hope in her garden
Who wanted brightness in the midst of dust
Who used impotent rage against intruders
Who gave sweat, determination, and finally, marigolds
Who said, "Y'all git!  Go on home!"
Miss Lottie
