Adrielle

Adrielle, sweet as can be, run and play Bathe in sticky bubbles another day Cascade ceaselessly, let us know you're here Dream so wondrously then show us the way Everyone loves you so don't shed a tear Flames within you are warm and always near God be with you through the hardest of times He speaks like daddy saying "Have no fear" I'm your uncle and I write you these lines Just for when you're older, then may you dine Knowing the stars shined starkly all the while Little you still sung the alphabet rhyme My words to describe you make a large pile Nonetheless creating a lonesome file O Adrielle tell me, have you changed? Are Pink sheets and purple blankey's still your style? Quelled are the storms when I see those bright stars Radiating in tiny eyes. Go far, Soak up this world like seldom seen sunshine Triumph over every fence and every bar Under flowery walls I think it's time Valiant thoughts will bloom inside your mind Whatever dreams you choose to chase whether X-rated or G, I hope you do fine! Your hopes be fish, waiting to be tethered Zip it all up and use it for later

This is so so sweet and perfect, Timothy. What a dear uncle you are. I like the line "Soak up this world like seldom seen sunshine" ABC form is fun, and you've done well with this. Always, Laura

Thanks Laura! She's a bit older now, so it's bittersweet watching her grow up (and also now that she's in Guatemala rather than in the states) ... ABCing is fun ... I've read one poem that was a 26 WORD (rather than line) poem that followed the format ... which I thought was rather impressive.

She will change a lot and still the light you see now will still remain at the centre of her. Wonderful dedication.

Thanks! Someday I will show it to her (at her age right now she wouldn't even begin to understand it, however).

Good lines from A to Z. Your niece sure is a lucky gal to have such exquisite writing dedicated to her. Well done, Timothy :)
