Precious Little One

To a "Precious Little One"

You'll become a December heir

A baby girl for Mom and Dad

To love, cherish and to share.


This baby will be closely held

Caressed and sang to with lots of care

And given to her a safe haven

That Mom and Dad, with her, will share.


Lots of happiness you will bring

To many that will love you so

Grandparents, Uncles, Aunts and all

Over the years will watch you grow.

I will travel down the pike

"Precious One" I'll want to see

To me, you'll be a "Great-Great-Great"

Knowing a pretty "Niece" you'll be.


All too soon, you'll grow up

A beautiful young lady you will be

Just like the pretty butterfly

That flutters about with grace and glee.


I bring to you this little card

This is my little gift of love

A little start for your college days

I know that Mom and Dad will approve.


I wish for you a happy life

May God keep you safe ~ watch over thee

And grant to you ~ health and happiness

This come from Auntie: on your family tree.
