The Child Within

Faded jeans cling to you
As you grin your silly grin
Your cotton blouse too
Displays your beauty again

A perkiness thats unique
Of a woman much younger
The child within you speaks
And the world is a wonder

Making cookies with your
Boisterous granddaughters
Shows all the very more
Your love for all that matters

With the laughter of a child
And the woman you have been
The sweetness of of your smile
Reveals the beauty within

A woman wise but tender
Compassionate and true
My heart can only surrender
And then give itself to you
