Cupcakes and candy, berries and more
dresses and shoes and sunshine
galore
gentle but strong, for the good stand your ground
mysteries and wonders of life to be
found
I love how you've learned to always say please
and thank you I love you my dream is world
peace
we'll talk and we'll laugh I'll be there for you
in the world of little girls there's so much to
do
skipping and dancing twirling and singing
new days will arrive with gifts you'll be
bringing
pigtails ponytails makeup and blush
I'll savor the present as I'm in no
rush
the palms of my hands gently cupping your face
tiny glimpses of me in the past I can
trace
there's so much to tell you but where do I start
believe in yourself with love in your
heart
though hearts can be broken they also can mend
on virtue and substance true love never
ends
open your mind and reach out with both arms
my darling little girl with all of your
charms
mommies and daddies sisters and brothers
grandpas and grandmas you're loved like no
other
boyfriends and girlfriends long talks on the phone
your voice is like heaven no matter the
tone
music and movies ponies and pets
with you in my life dear now I am
set
my wish for you as your days turn to years
love deeply laugh often your light shining
clear
Happy Birthday Shelby with Love from "Mimi"
