Nothing in this life is treasured
More than a sweet little girl
For her beauty can be measured
Far beyond ribbons and curls
She enlightens through her innocence
Sometimes beaming, sometimes shy
But within her stunning eloquence
We find the wings to fly.

Every little girl is gentle
Living life, warm and carefree
In a manner, sentimental
To her friends and family
As she grows, she will discover
That her inner self-esteem
Holds the key that shall uncover
The path to her hopes and dreams.

Nothing in this life is treasured
More than a sweet little girl
For her beauty can be measured
Far beyond ribbons and curls
She brings joy to her surroundings
From the moment of her birth
She is strong; she is astounding
She is heaven, come to earth.
