Katie May

How can so many wonderful things
squeeze into someone so small?
Masses of hair all wavy and soft.
Beautiful eyes and a button nose.
A cheeky smile with a contagious laugh
you can't help but catch.

Tiny fingers always busy in handbags
seeking out strange new delights.
Little feet increasingly eager to explore,
playing hide and seek with car keys and lipstick.
The next hug is but a smile away,
escaping in vast numbers, all shapes and sizes.

She loves with all of her heart,
so innocent and unselfish.
The greatest gift of all
is the wink of an eye
or a beaming smile.
She is priceless;
worth more than the worlds weight in gold.
