Alive

 

She is the most alive person I know

joy and enthusiasm emit from her

like rays of sunshine

she makes happiness appear

brings light into a room

her big brown eyes sparkle with love

her smile as natural as breathing

and all the while

an aura surrounds her

just being in her presence

makes people feel better

there is nothing negative in her thoughts

she spreads delight like Tinkerbell

her voice a song of sweetness

that makes people sing along

and the best thing is

she's been this way

ever since she was

our little girl.

D.K.

Great words.
That could just as easily be my daughters,
even down to the brown eyes.
