Chelsea's Poem

I wrote this poem for my great-niece
when she was about 6 months old.

A new life begins
So tiny and frail.
She came into the world
With a great big wail.

So little and perfect
Not a flaw to be found.
So happy and chubby
The best baby around.

She giggles and gurgles
And laughs at us all.
How can so much love
Come from someone so small?

And though there are many babies
This one is better than those
This one's much more special
And her name's Chelsea Rose.
