THROUGH A CHILDS EYES

Nothing looks the same

When you see what a child

Does see

There are monsters in the closet

Waiting there for me.

She never walks

She runs or skips

Yelling out with joy and glee.

In her small world,

Not caring if the world should see.

She holds her little arms up high

And says I need a hug.

She melts my heart

Giving quite a tug.

She sees the world a happy place

And she shows it on her smiling face.

Her brown eyes sparkle like the sun

With a radiant glow full of fun.

That’s my Jenna

Who won my heart

From the first day

Right from the start.

She’s bigger now

Can’t you see

She’s Leah’s big sister

She holds the key

Now there are two of them

To steal my heart

I’ve loved them both

From the very start.
