SOMEONE TO LOVE
(As of 9/8/41)
A heavenly ray of sunshine
Touched my heart one day
Staked out a corner as her own
And there she’ll always stay
Imprinted on my memory
Where it will never fade
Is the first time I saw her
And the impact she made
A tousled mass of golden curls
Mischievous eyes of blue
Cutest little button nose
That was Evie Lou
With her captivating smile
And her shy winsome way
She gave me love, and in return
She won my heart that day
Without a bit of prodding
The first time that we met
She lovingly called me Mommie
Now how lucky could I get
And at that very moment
Maternal seeds were sown
And I could not love her more
Were she my very own

Daughter of my husband
Sister of my son
Bandit of this heart of mine
Precious little one — my daughter
