Rhyme For Sarah

A poem dedicated to my niece.

I wandered much until I found
The road I took led only down

Down to sorrows through lonely fears
Down to despair, and on to tears

I wallowed there for just a while
Until your presence made me smile

You brought back love. You brought back hope
Filled up my heart each time  you spoke

The things you give make life worthwhile
My world lights up each time you smile
