When my children were growing up, I attempted to write poems for them occasionally- at birthdays, at graduations, at special occasions. They were sporadically written- not very eloquent- but they held my love for them. Now I have a granddaughter....and I hope I have more grandchildren to follow...I want to make it a tradition that I write each of them a poem on their birthdays.So now it begins, with Baby Kailynn turning ONE!!! WOW! Where did the time go??
One day, God decided to make
A special little girl
He tossed in some red hair
Added a little curl
God mixed together some laughter
Gave her a cute little nose,
Adorable fingers and
Adorably, sweet toes
God sprinkled smiles on her
Dusting her with love
He wrapped her tightly
Delivering her from above
God gave her a special mom and dad
They hugged her oh so tight
They rocked her to sleep
Each and every night
God, thank you for baby, Kailynn
Now, this is what I pray
Keep your eyes on her
Every single day
