Little Girls are a Gift

Little girls are a gift
Sent from heaven above
Ever their voices uplift
When filled with sweetness and love

Their hands so soft and small
Remind us that life is fragile
Ever wanting to grow up tall
They practice at being agile

They abound in varied talents
Through innate abilities to create
Ever there's a list of achievements
Which add beauty to life in new ways 

Still, their greatest treasure Is a heart full of love It changes the room Like sunlight from above
