An Ode to Zyllah

Dancing by double 1, eleven,
Just one year, 13, oh heaven,
Finally she'll be a teenager,
But first, her mom, to age her!

Sappy looks and gooey words,
Boys to her are for the birds,
Soon the hue and smell of rouge,
Kisses from your lips, no boy to refuse.

On the phone, both day and night,
Whispers with girlfriends, oh the delight!
Great big secrets, mixed with giggles,
Never sits still, always the wiggles.

Stern looks to her from mother,
Another trick played on her brother,
Now she reads these words of wit,
Found a way to make her sit.

Methinks she has left the girl behind,
Ahead the joy and love of woman-kind,
Jenny for your birthday, an offered gift,
Kisses and a hug, if you get my drift!

Happy Birthday to YOU!
