I like it. I didn't notice it rhymed, really. But I like these sort of poems. they read some what broken but it ties up in the end.

The first thought that comes to mind is that it has nice images. "Pretty like white desert sand" is my favorite. So, is this your usual style? If not, what made this particular style come to mind?

My baby girl, while still in the crib, could be made to smile
and stop crying when her daddy simply said one word : "Pretty!"
This poem brought back those sweet long ago memories. Thanks.

Blessings,
Robert Edgar "Lawdog" Burns

Everything you spoke of here spells pretty to me.
Whoever you wrote this about or for is a lucky lady my sweet friend.
