She opens her eyes , blue sky clear morning.
Little does she know the cruel ways of the world.
Her innocence is treasure to my heart.
Her laughter is like a sweet song , on a sad day.
The way she looks up at me , with those joyful eyes
is a comfort to my heart.
She holds my hand , she looks to me for refuge.
She looks to me as an example.
I close my eyes and speak a prayer.
I say " Dear Lord show me how to be a good example to her amen".
She smiles at me and asks me questions I answer her,
to the best of my ability. She looks to me thinking I am smart.
I have learned some things along the way, but I myself am still but a girl.
We stand together as sisters , we stand with love, with strength to walk
With each other.
No matter what.
I hold her close she hears the beat of my heart.
I kiss her head.
I whisper to her and say " I love you".
By her smile , by her actions.
I know she loves me.
She is a little girl, but has a beautiful heart.
Forever and always she is my baby girl.
But she is not mine.
She belongs to the creator.
Forevermore.
For my precious sister Kiera May Weiss.
