Jessie's Drum

Jessie’s Drum A little girl with an imagination That went on forever One day a cowgirl The next trying to plug in your stuffed rabbit We never knew what you were going to do next You never ceased to amaze us You knew who you were from the start And you always marched to the beat of Jessie’s Drum So much has changed Through the years you have grown The streak in you has gone And as much as I hate to admit Won’t be long before you are all grown up You are still just as sweet And you are beautiful as well Marching to the beat of Jessie’s Drum The biggest thing being that you know who you are Not letting others talk you into things You know are wrong Or that would compromise who you are A teenager with a good head on her shoulders A girl with a dream You know you are who you want to be So no matter what others may say I know you will always March to the beat of Jessie’s Drum And because of that I know you will go far By: Jean Shular For Jessie I know your dreams will come true Just like I know you will always be you We love you

This is certainly beautiful Jean. We all have that special spark of love, given by the maker Himself that makes us unique little Agape copies. The spark of which none are exactly fulfilled in the same way. So also is Jessie. Sincerely, Love, Moses
