A World Aglow

Her bedroom was painted a cheery yellow The paint reflecting her charms She disarmed the gloomy mornings, and filled each dawn with sun As days went by, and as she grew The sun would follow too It seemed to fill her attitude, as gold within her soul Born to lift spirits, there burned a flame To warm the coldest heart Her eyes would shine, like yellow stars, To twinkle in their mirth A gentle touch, a quiet way, as soft as yellow rose It is no surprise, the day would come, when she became a mom With radiant pose, she's all aglow, and bends to kiss his toes We watch him grow, he lights her life, and though he does not know... he lights my own, the sun....the moon, who shines the world, aglow 2/9/14 Dedicated to my daughter and my grandson...

wonderful, Carrie, and the way you took it and made it into a tribute. I wish the HM's were on the regular list. I have yet to see the last ones but I bet they are pretty!
