Strawberry Girl

Listen to poem:
Pretty
Is a concept
You'll never 
Understand

If you think 
I see you
Through endeavours
Of the hand

I love
You make the effort
Appreciate
Your style

I love you
Past the surface
Just deeper
All the while

You paint
Just like a rainbow
With hues and shades
And stuff

Yet beautiful 
Has found you
Already
You're enough

Dear Sam, another beautiful poem. Beauty lies within indeed. We can always love people with good looks and all but we always fall in love with people who have a beautiful soul. Best, Anne

For a grandchild? You left it ambiguous enough that it's open to interpretation. Cute photo and sweet poem Sam
