Jenna

Silver blonde hair hiding an eye
Blue eyes bright and intent
A nose cute enough to tweak

These are what I see when I think of you

Laughter that rivals the bluebells
A smile so warm to melt the darkest heart
Your spirit a beacon to guide and help us all

These are what I see when I think of you

And even though I only had you for three months
These and you will be in my heart forever

Love,
Mom
