P E A R L

Sweet little human showed off her stars for the day

Her teacher told her, “You’re doing okay!”

Prouder and bolder, she was, everyday

A stick of lollipop, and she would not disobey

A little diffferent than the rest of the kids, perhaps

An observer, a ninja, and one who never took naps

Every word, every act, and every learning she grasps

Little sister copied her, and oh boy, she claps!

My baby was bright, crazy, and unique

She makes me smile with just a peek.

Though, every minute she would try to sneak,

A kiss, a hug, and an I love you sure does the trick.

Pearl is her name and joy she brings to my life,

Being her mother truly is a delight. ♡
