~Rocket Girl~


My granddaughter in Japan.  A bedtime story for my beautiful Sophie...and as you wish then it shall be.  Love...

~Rocket Girl~

Au revoir petite fille...goodbye!
You've always had your wings to fly.
I will not stop you...au contraire!
Your place is in the stratosphere.

So begin the countdown, trois, deux, un!
Your rocket girl life has just begun.
Now blast off oui...we're all so proud!
As heart shaped contrails cut the clouds.

Please keep in touch, and count the stars
as you zip through space and pass by Mars.
Now close your eyes, it's time to sleep.
Buon nuit princesse, buon nuit...buon nuit.

  1. Love the girl, love the story, love the song. I picture a beautiful book with enchanting illustrations when I read this. Lyrics that rhyme and wrap around my heart, ribbons that flow freely and hopefully float back to you.
