Autumn was the season she finally arrived
Underneath the late summer Tuscan sun
Beautiful green eyes peeks out beneath long eyelashes
Using the strength of her voice she announces herself
Ringing though the halls for all to hear
No one ignores her cries of displeasure
Captivated, all rush to the doorway to where she is
Using a sense of decorum, they glance inside
Ringlets of auburn curls frame her face
Lovingly the mother holds her in her arms
Smiling parents of their newborn daughter
