she is like a gift,

wrapped carefully within a layer of tin foil

carefully placed in wrapping paper,

finished with a bow before being kept safe in a bag with plenty of tissue paper,

trying to be gentle as she's put away safe and sound until she is ready to open up again

and I get to see her and hold her for longer when it's later

because she's just that special.

and she is a gift to the world.

her laugh, her smile, the way she talks.
really lucky she was given to me, as she opens up once more, she really is like a gift to me.
