Do you remember the child that danced in the rain,
that played in the mud, 
and ran barefoot in the grass?
She still lives in you,
find her,
dance with her.

Do you remember the child that laughed,
at silly puns and knock knock jokes,
that laughed until she snorted
and did not worry about looking like a fool?
She still lives in you,
find her,
laugh with her.

Do you remember the child that tried,
to ride a bike, do a cart wheel, roller skate,
for the first time,
who fell and got back up,
brushing dirt from skinned knees 
and kept trying again and again?
She still lives in you,
find her,
be fearless like her.

Do you remember the child 
that paraded in brightly colored clothes,
with contrasting patterns,
bubble gum pink lip gloss
and high heeled shoes too big for her feet?
She still lives in you,
find her,
be a diva like her.
