The girl with a freckled face and a skirt of blue and green swirl.
Once there was a little girl
a freckled face
with a skirt of blue and green swirl.
the butterflies and bugs she'd chase.
One day skipping by the pond
she looked down at her reflection.
she looked through her eyes, the waters and beyond
she knew of goodness and redemption
She ran with a smile spread on her face
and spread the happiness she'd learned
she kissed and loved
and accepted and adored
and never judged.
People watched in awe at her
sweet full heart
her innocence and her peace
her acceptance and her sweet speech
They spoke of her for days tot come
and wondered how kindness came
from one so young
They spoke of how one day she looked into the near pond
and looked into the most beautiful eyes and hair of blonde
she saw the beauty in the little girl--
a freckled face with a skirt of blue and green swirl.
