A warm wired cage 
Flickering with heat 
And the promose of a future filled with family 

An empty room of an empty man waiting for life 
And a question from a little girl, 
"Where is all the furniture?" 

A backyard and a garden 
A family of merry
A birthday party torn asunder by a virus 
And a little girl crying in her bed alone 

A Christmas filled with trampolines
Boxes too big to fit in a room 
Summer and afternoons of the pinkest 
And a girl whose freckles blooom 

A padock, an escape 
A place to be free 
She who controls the wind has spirit 
And a girl waits for the bus alone again 

A uniform cut to size 
Elegant and spritely 
A marker of their sucess 
And a girl feels ready to grow up 

Days settle into weeks
A family emerges 
Fathers work and mothers spend 
And she can choose the colour of her room
