A precious little body,
innocent and sweet today;
if only I could
keep her that way,
and never let her feel
the pain of a broken heart,
or the terrible fear
when 'your' life's falling apart.
I'll hold her close
to my heart and soul
Praying that she
will never know
what once starts out
so innocent and sweet
can take your breath,
and knock you
off your feet.
Be tough, Little Princess,
I want you to survive
all the tricks and mazes
we sometimes call Life!!!

{> {> for my one and only Little Princess,
My Granddaughter <} <}

Beautiful innocence, when untouched by pain.  We will always wish that to be.  Very well done.
