Defined as perfect


Her eyes were just so alive and bright

Instantly I knew this hug was genuine and right

She ran and jumped up into my arms

I could never cause that pretty girl no harms

 

She yelled and called out uncle hay

I turned excited and said okay

And there she was arms spread out wide

She finally didn’t want to hide

 

I ran to her my arms out to

I skidded on my knees like rock stars do

She ran and jumped up right into me

We hugged just like it was supposed to be

 

This is the first and only hug we’ve shared

She is so shy and oh so scared

But that day she jumped up full of love

She brought me peace just like a dove

 

This little girl I speak of now

I love her so and she taught me how

To define that mysterious word perfect

But this is a different type of intellect
