Demi

A pair of sandals on her feet,
a plaster on her knee,
a dirty little face so cute,
a smile that's just for me,
a little bothered that she is,
well a spider that she saw,
she hold's my hand so tightly,
but still she watches more.
A wonder to behold she is,
her eyes they follow you,
everything you touch and say,
everything you do,
come to me my little one,
sit upon my knee,
and i shall teach you all the world,
the world you are to me,
and when you are grown,
remember the special time,
when nanna played with you,
and your special time was mine.
