Full Circle
Tiny baby, little one
Mother looks at child with love
Gives her thanks to God above
Dreams of days all full of fun
Underneath the noonday sun
Little girl a child of three
Lacey things now fill her room
She plays in gardens where flowers bloom
Sits upon her daddy’s knee
Little girl giggles aloud with glee
Child is growing, now a teen
No longer plays with dolls and toys
Into makeup, cars, and boys
Before her date she’ll sit and preen
And hope her parents won’t make a scene
Older now and now a bride
Dressed up in her gown of white
Flowers in her hair, smile so bright
Walks up the aisle by daddy’s side
He gives her away face full of pride
Tiny baby, little one
Mother looks at child with love
Gives her thanks to God above
The new life in her arms has just begun
Life’s full circle we have come
Back to poetry and prose
