Being herself


There she is again
Just what is it about this
Nondescript girl

Aren't short skirts out now
And what's she done with her hair
She is so quirky

Placidly smiling
She has some tatts on her neck
Doc Martin's on feet

Where is my little girl
Who slept snuggled in my arms
When she was but two

  2. They grow up, that's the whole problem.No more 'our little girls' but adults in their own right.

  4. How quickly times goes as we get older but when young every moment still seems vital and exciting - I may not change her clothes but might offer her a healthy snack as she's looking a little too slender...
