Birthday Girl

You turn six today
Sweet sunny child of my son
Pisces just like me

Your blonde hair, shy smile
Make me smile back in return
Even if alone

Looking at your face
In a picture in my hand
Wishing you were near

Liv, my golden girl
So far away, so special
Six and then, sixteen

I want to stop time
Hold your childhood days in check
But you bounce ahead

Golden curls, giggles
Music, dolls, pretty dresses
Such a fair lady

Happy Birthday, Olivia!

Love, Babci xoxo
