For Paige

My granddaughter asked me for a poem. and I needed to write something deliriously happy.

A riddle wrapped in a scream of giggled delight,
a joy wrapped around an elephant's trunk,
a grandchild wrapped in the blanket of being a mother,
a wondrous book of endless pages that keeps getting longer.

A puzzle with a missing piece,
a conundrum curled inside an enigma,
with eyes that show her very soul,
and a heart with no boundaries.

A magical sprite with a soul on fire,
a girly-girl tomboy within an adult,
my Outlander cohort, my granddaughter, my friend.
Love you. Love you more. Mostest.
