A Pledge To A Teenager

I’m not pretty - I hear you say
When you look in the mirror
During the day
I look at you and what do I see
A lovely young woman looking at me
Shining straight hair with magic lights
Skin silky smooth on beautiful limbs
Almond shaped eyes blue as Mediterranean sky
A smile that’s lights up your face, even when you are shy
Treasure your beauty my grand daughter so rare
Don’t let me hear you saying that ‘it is not fair’
‘I’m not pretty, my legs are so fat, my bum’s too big’
You are a young beauty so don’t care a fig
What you see in the mirror is not what we all see
Enjoy your youth and beauty and just let it be
