the purples and pinks
all the colors daddy mixes
vegetables in the garden
coffee that's too hot
shower water never truly warm enough
the birds and the saturday mornings and the music we sing
the dog that eats, the cat, the baby boy
today they grow for her
there was a flash of light and out she came
and all the photographs and conversations and dance moves and grass stains to come
will hold her in our hearts
her story is her own, but for a while we hold the frame
we decorate her space and paint her body with gentle touch
and
love her with our everything
raise your glasses
our angel is here
