Born on the morning of July twenty-fifth of 2003, <br />Christened 'Eva Laureen' 'n the world would see; <br /> <br />That her purpose was great as she'd soon embark, <br />To achieve great wonders, by leaving her mark, <br /> <br />On a world so dangerous, chaotic 'n stressed, <br />Using God-given powers, anointed 'n blessed, <br /> <br />Parents ‘n family pledging support 'n their love, <br />As God smiled down from His throne high above, <br /> <br />“Eva” <br /> <br />Endowed with charisma 'n beauty to spare, <br />Bluest of blue eyes 'n soft golden hair, <br /> <br />With a turn of a finger or a smile on her face, <br />People scurry about at a blistering pace, <br /> <br />Performing herculean tasks at her regal command, <br />With a nod of her head or the wave of her hand, <br /> <br />A natural leader, destined to balance the scales, <br />She knows not to rest, till justice prevails, <br /> <br />Restoring peace where turmoil once ruled this land, <br />By causing those plotting evil to give up 'n disband, <br /> <br />Eva dear Eva there’s so much you shall do, <br />As your knowledge 'n wisdom begin to accrue, <br /> <br />We'll prepare you well for a time just ahead, <br />The future applauds loudly 'n of you shall be said, <br /> <br />“Eva governed with compassion 'n love to be sure, <br />From a calm place within her, assured 'n demure.”<br /><br />Ray Lucero<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/eva-beloved-granddaughter/
