Just look

Janet Stafford 1959 (Derby)

August 22 
Rhymed
A giggle a gurgle a snicker and smile
A love of life making things worthwhile
A skip a hop then jumping with glee
Just look at the new life bursting in me

A dream a hope the kindness of love
Flying on high on the wings of a dove
Twirling and swirling around and around
Just look at the new life I have found
