She’s Made of Wonder

For my youngest daughter. The one the loves everyone. Humans and animals.

She walks as if the world’s her friend,
Certain every hurt she can mend
She does not pass the lonely by,
She sees the quiet ones and tries

In her small hands, the world feels wide,
With room for everyone inside
No heart too strange, no soul too far,
She loves people just as they are

She fills the room with song and spin,
With dancing feet and joyful grin
Halfway through one sparkling thought,
She’s chasing twenty more she caught

She paints with colors wild and bright,
Turns ordinary into light
And every new thing that she learns,
Becomes a little star that burns

She asks big questions, laughs out loud,
Finds magic hidden in a crowd
A heart so open, pure, and light,
She makes the whole world feel more bright

And someday when she’s older still,
Past every dream she plans to fulfill
I hope she never has to hide,
The glowing wonder she carries inside

Because the rarest souls on earth,
Do not need noise to prove their worth
But those who make all people see,
How beautiful this life can be
