Little Girl

Little girl in striped tutu
Standing out in the crowd
Little girl in sparkles
Whose Mom is so proud
Don’t be too eager
To take centre stage
When they flatter and tell you
You’ll be all the rage
Remember fame is fleeting
And youth is soon spent
Your child hood is precious
It’s a gift from God sent.
