Seriously in Love...

Ode to Autumn's Curls...

Oh beautiful ringlets that adorn her head,
I pray you grow, abound and spread.
Never leaving or fading away,
Please remain, yes forever to stay.

A smile to my face you bring,
A song in my heart you tempt me to sing.
A giggle you inspire as you bounce around,
A grace you provide without making a sound.

One day I am sure my daughter will say,
"Oh these curls they just get in my way!".
And so I'll assure my sweet baby girl,
"Your curls are more rare than a fresh water pearl!"

I love them I love them and love them some more,
I love these curly cues like never before.
I gawk, I stare, I squint and I strain,
To etch their image into my brain.

Oh beautiful ringlets that adorn her head,
I pray you grow, abound and spread.
Never leaving or fading away,
Please remain, yes forever to stay.
