Wonder of Creation
A Song for Mary-Catherine
Tiny little fingers,
   Tiny little nose,
Pressed against the window watching flowers grow.

Wonders of creation all are there in view.
     Through the eyes of my grandchild
Love is shining through.

Ring around the roses,
    Catch a falling star,
Hide and seek on the hilltop,
Running near and far.

Whisper sweet night secrets snuggled down in bed
   Fairytales and make-believe still now in her head.

See the seasons changing?
   Quickly goes the time.
Memories are fading, thoughts become entwined.

Ring upon her finger.
   High heels on her toes.
A beauty now, all grown up!
Wonder where time goes?
