"Ordinary life does not interest me. I seek only the high moments. I am in accord with the surrealists, searching for the marvelous." ~Anais Nin

Mila Simone, 1 week old

For My Niece

Welcome to the world, little one,
We're very glad you're here.
We were surprised when you arrived,
But hold you very dear.

Welcome to the world, little girl,
There's so much here to learn:
Like how do flowers bloom in light,
Or how the world does turn.

Welcome to the world, little soul,
You're so precious to us all.
One little look from your dark eyes, and
We're at your beck and call.

Welcome to the family,
I'm glad you've come to stay,
And I will love you so, so much
Every single day.
