In the deepest part of my heart and soul,
I have many buried treasures there.
Although there are many gone untold,
My first real doll is a treasure rare.

I wanted to give you the stars at night,
The fragrance of flowers all in bloom.
I wanted to give you the moon so bright,
And to banish for you all the gloom.

At least I can give you untarnished love,
And wish you many happy birthdays more.
Many treasures from God up above,
Until we go meet Him on that other shore.

Dedicated to our daughter Vickie Walker Farmer's Birthday,
May 22, 1999
With love and happy birthday wishes
