The golden hair,
the lovely smile,
belie the fact that she’s in pain.
You look at her
and you just see this sweet,
young, very young girl.
Untouched by the world,
fresh, unspoiled,
blooming like a delicate
rose among the thorns.
A young sparrow
starting to fly,
looking up at her nest
from down on the ground
waiting for help.
No fear in her heart,
because she trusts.
An innocent child
learning to walk,
sure of the help her parents offer,
knowing she will not fall.
An angel here
down on Earth
making us happy
every day.
She’s wise,
this lass,
she knows how to live life.
she knows how to be selfless,
loving, kind.
And she has discovered
something that few know:
the secret of happiness,
here and beyond.
