Skipping One Across THE Pond

I wonder

how many skips

it will take

for this one to go

across THE Pond...

'ya know,

the REALLY BIG

Pond.

This tatter likes riddles,

so you'll have to 

guess

her name...

Here are some

"helpful" hints:

She is the ONLY person

in the WORLD,

to EVER call me "lass."

Gotta say I liked it.

Felt young and 

spring-steppy.

She ain't

afeared

of color -

That's why

I thought

she could handle

this press.

She makes

winter

warmer

with her magic

tat wand.

Heaven forbid,

if she took a 

bonk on the head

and forgot her name,

the constable

would still get

it partly right,

although

her surname

is not Doe.

She is

generous

to all tatters

and such 

a nice person

to "know."

I betcha know who I'm talkin' about...

PS 

You may have wondered where I have gotten myself to (or quite possibly not).  I've been here working diligently on "The Plan" and am VERY happy to say it is almost there.  So close I can taste it (but have refrained).  I've been trying to stay away from Blogland for a bit in order to "get 'er done" and have only been allowing myself a little occasional lurker time here and there.  Hope to "see" everyone soon!
