Barbara Ellen Meyer (Meyer-Spidell) wrote this for daughter, Lauren Marie Meyer, born in Elgin Il, Sherman Hospital, on July 23rd, 1989.
Circa 1990-91.
She lifts her chin and her delicate head spills her hair back the color of butter
I kiss her bruised lip from her fall from before
and I watch her jump across the floor
her features lovely and right
skin soft
and eyes blue
light
agile
swift
daring and kind
This all describes the girl of mine
