Sassy Lassie
To my grandchild Laura-Beth who will be 20 years old on the 10/5/17 Happy birthday baby love always Nannie and Star big hugs xxx
I still remember the day you were born
A beautiful shining happy morn
Mama yelled it can`t be true
A girl... you`re telling fibs...aren`t you.
Mum had a house so full of men
She could not face that all again
But then you came to be her lassie
`Though you were sometimes real sassy
She jumped for joy she heard the truth
A baby girl, yes here`s the proof
Pale soft skin and dark blue eyes
Light blond hair and baby sighs
Now this baby is full grown
And has two lads of her own
She is pretty... quite a beauty
And she does what is her duty
Full of love she holds them near
And watches as they grow each year
As we still watch her growing strong
And it won`t be very long
Before this lass is twenty one
Key of the door and having fun
Have a lovely day my lass
You are now top of the class
Hear you are going to college soon
To learn to photograph the moon
My wish for you is that you find
A man who loves you and is kind
Have a happy day today
Lots of fun you still can play
As I look back I`ll always see
You sitting tight upon my knee
Memories oh so precious now
Never leave us all somehow
Keep on doing what you do
And don`t forget that I love you
