small but fierce
comes to mind
three feet and a bit
of restless energy
hair so blonde and fine
it resembles spun cotton
eyes deep blue
and a mouth that moves
non-stop, with questions,
observations and affirmations
the thinness of her is that
that happens with a growth spurt
she walks trippingly, the line
between grace and gawkiness
she brings with her curiousity,
positivity and a huge bouquet
of daisy's
my heart leaps, when she smiles
this little bit of strangeness
so used to the male child
the feminine is unfamilar
the small arms encircle me
and squeeze love into my soul
and the laughter, that tinkles
from her lips lights up the room
she is come, she is come

and the laughter, that tinkles
from her lips lights up the room
she is come, she is come
a visit from my god daughter.... about elevenish....all energy and love
