Here's to all the girls

Here's to all the girls

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

Here’s to all the girls…


 

Who don’t wake up looking like a Kardashian!

Who still make a wish upon a falling star!

Who love watching re-runs of “Will & Grace”!

Who consider daisies to be the friendliest flower!

Who start their day with coffee… and mascara!

Who love the smell of puppies just as much as brownies!

Who celebrate a girl’s night in with Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Monkey!

Who turn up the stereo and dance bare foot to “Uptown Funk”!

Who wish [with all their heart] they could’ve been Marilyn’s best friend!

 

Yeah, here’s to all the girls who are just like me

The Kardashians are over-rated. I have two daughters and would always want them to be true to themselves and never live under anyones shadow. It sounds like those are your qualities, you're living the dream, Kelly! Have a great Friday. CD

I'd like to think so - it's pretty fabulous! Thanks so much, CD!
Kelly as the father of two girls, now grown up, I delight in your poem. They were and are all of those things and more. I wrote a poem for them when they were much younger. It's posted here:
CHILDREN.

Take care - Dave

I absolutely loved this! Change "Will & Grace" to "Friends" and it's a perfect day in my eyes :)

Do ripple chips and caramels count? If so, I am in. Nice little positive poem here.
