"A New Life in the Stars"

Now that Esme is finally 5 years old
She doesn’t have to do everything that she’s told
When she was 4, she had sooooo much to learn
But now she’s all grown up, with wisdom to burn.

Esme shudders to think of how she was so naive
All of the 4 year old dreams that she was led to believe
Such a child she was then…! But then is not now
So she walks up to her parents and says with a bow—

"O’ mother and O’ father, my time has come at last!"
"I am a big girl now, and I must move on from my past"
So with adventure on her mind and wanderlust in her heart,
Esme straps on her jetpack and blasts off for a fresh start.

Rocketing up into the cosmos, avoiding the pointy corners of stars
Solving mysteries upon Jupiter, finding aliens on Mars
Esme waves to the Earth as she leaves the Milky Way galaxy,
Maybe when she’s 8 she’ll return, but for now she’ll live free.

(Starring the wonderful Esme, in celebration of her 5th birthday!)
