She is a scientist,
But she still smiles and laughs with the flowers,
And plays with the butterflies as they pass.
She is a scientist,
But she still sneaks chocolate chips from the bag,
And licks the spoon when she's baking.
She is a scientist,
But she's still a mermaid in the pool,
And a princess in a dress.
She is a scientist,
But Santa still visits every Christmas,
And the Easter Bunny every Easter.
She is a scientist,
But the tooth fairy is still her best friend,
And the sandman gives her her dreams.
She is a scientist,
But she still loves Barbies,
And hot wheels are still her favourite.
She is a scientist,
But she still collects rocks to paint,
And hoards stickers too good to use.
She is a scientist,
But she still makes spaghetti necklaces,
And eats candy bracelets.
She is a scientist,
But she still reads fairy tales,
And still builds bad lego castles.
She is a scientist,
But boys still have cooties,
And her room is still covered in fairy lights.
She is a scientist,
But she still loves the monkey bars,
And still sleeps with her childhood bear.
She is a scientist,
But she still blows bubbles,
And puts too much soap in her baths.
She is a scientist,
But she still hates pink,
However, it's a little different now.
She is a scientist,
But she is still a little girl too,
And her magic is still in her heart, deep and true.
She is a scientist,
But you can never take the girl from the soul,
And you can't trade it for even the shiniest piece of coal.
She is a scientist,
But he spark will always exist,
And if you try to take it,
The whole universe will resist.
