grinning.
Child of the rainbow,
beaming.
Shiny bright and serenely agile,
today, she dazzles the sun, her shy smile radiant.

-measured by the number of words in each line 3-1-4-1-5-9
to match the numerical sequence of the first six digits of Pi.

Like this Marianne. Your words bring her to life, and the image sets her twirling in delight, as only a young child can do. Hope she goes right on dancing.

What a lovely poem about your granddaughter. I have copied the directions for the form, may try it before the month is out.
Love,
