Poised for tomorrow
There she stands
Just starting her journey
All dressed up in her flowered dress
and pretty pink hat
Looking forward to the future.
There are shadows on her path -
dark things which obscure
the brightness of her being
But she can see ahead
there just at the curve
the path is bright and clear
unobscured - ready for her
ready for her as she starts out
her world is getting broader
brighter, less limited
for her and her sisters
all of them
Poised for the future
ready for what tomorrow will bring
embracing the full rich life
that awaits her.
