you are little yellow daises and,
how you love the feeling of sunshine on your soft skin
you are the smiles you bring to foreign cheeks and,
and your favorite flavor of ice cream
you are the stars that light up in other peoples\' eyes as you enter the room,
and your favorite blue sweater
you are glow-in-the-dark paint on a little girl\'s finger nails:
ten little pieces of hope in the dark,
ten little pieces of you
you are a \'57 Cadillac, precious and rare,
turning heads, changing hearts, and brightening the days of
all those who doubted you,
all those who never thought you\'d make it this far
But the best part is that you are mine.
