Shiny blue beads, carefully strung,
placed around the neck, carefully hung,
on a twenty year old girl,
soon to be twenty one.
A birthday gift, lovingly made,
wrapped up in a blue box,
with blue ribbon too.
A powder blue tag,
to make sure it's not missed.
Given from the heart and sealed with a kiss.
Shiny blue beads, that match the eyes,
of a twenty year old girl,
soon to be twenty one.
Eager to spread her wings and fly,
now that her childhood is over and done.
Shiny blue beads, sit in a box.
A remnant of a life well lived.
Lived to the fullest, not many regrets,
She gave all that she had to give.
Shiny blue beads, carefully strung,
placed around the neck, carefully hung,
on a eighty year old charmer,
soon to be eighty one.
Shiny blue beads, lovingly made,
wrapped up in a blue box,
with blue ribbon too.
A powder blue tag,
to make sure it's not missed,
given from the heart and sealed with a kiss.
