Hold it up to the light

like a color slide

watching rainbow spots 

like fruity pebbles

dance and move and 

illuminate.

You'll see all I have to tell,

if you try.

Pick me up and spin me around,

and watch my smile,

my hair

illuminate.

Gold and red

like waves of sunshine.

Just take the time

And hold me up to the light.
