HAPPY BIRTHDAY AIMEE! Here's a poem I wrote for Aimee
last year. It still applies! I love you Aimee!!!

FOR AIMEE

In Italy, long ago
An angel was born
As pure as snow

In the wee night hours
Pouring rain & shining moon
An angel appeared
And filled the room
A tiny babe
So sweet & pure
A little angel, our daughter--
Aimee her name
Beloved she is
Bringing love that Christmas,
And ever since.

Her voice like the angels
Her smile so divine
Her spirit so lovely
I know she’s not mine.
She must be from Heaven
How else can explain
How beautiful she is,
How unearthly, this refrain:
Aimee, beloved,
is her name.
