For Claire
Your beauty beams with patent rage
Undiminished and unharmed with age
Like the primrose of the spring
You are the jewel that sunshine brings
Your kindness is without compare
Unprejudiced and unimpaired
Like the music of a hymn
You are the song that angels sing
Your joy inspires the world to smile
And makes the trials of day worthwhile
Like the rain upon the leaves
You are the water all life needs
Your compassion is unlimited
The purest and most noble gift
Like heroes in the books I read
You are the person I want to be
