To Dina

With a gleam in her eye and a hand on ‘er hip She utters defiance with poisonous lips Twistin' the phone cord and flickin' ‘er ash She talks to her boyfriend while countin' her cash Throws on some makeup and heads out to Em's She's goin' to smoke with some of her friends She's flauntin' her confidence without thinkin' twice Ignore her and you'll pay the ultimate price 'Cause she slays the world with a flash of her smile I'm hopin' she stays in my life for a while happy birthday to my daughter © 2 minutes ago, Gayle Rodd
