Isabella - Cheeky with It!

This stunning grin warms me inside

A smile can cross the Great Divide!

How wonderful to feel such joy;

Let happiness its wings deploy!

 

Sweet innocence is Nature’s balm

Wrapped in hopes, kept free from harm

With all illusions still intact

See, in her mirror, not one crack!

 

But why grow up? There is no rush

To leave sweet childhood’s rosy flush

Enthusiasm weaves its spell

For Isabella, all is well.

 

Ebullient, keen to show her feelings,

Spontaneous gal in all her dealings:

Her joie de vivre fills to the brim;

Shoals of hearts she’ll surely win!

 

In perky, pink-blue dress, she’s sweet

But with cheekiness replete;

A moment captured for all time

And for Auntie, this new rhyme!
