Grandpa’s little Girl

To my 3-year-old Granddaughter Shauna Rose Eggebroten.

What are you thinking little girl?
In your little mind,
Behind those green-gray eyes,
Seeing the world so differently then I.

What pictures do you see?
And sounds do you hear?
So flooding your mind…
You put up walls, closing doors
To the deluge from outside …

Do you know we love you?
Can you cipher what we say?
Are there things you want to tell us,
But somehow you can’t explain?

We love you little girl.
In our lives you have a part.
Whatever comes your way,
You’re always in our heart.
