My avatar is showing
my flight from child to now;
How wonderful this creation
reflects just who I am.
Sweet childhood is now passed
but I am still as you see;
This avatar is my favorite one
I'll keep and never change.

Eri, I am so gratified when we keep the wonder of the child within, for they are wise beyond eyes and ears. I have seen several of these morphing avatars on site. The child in yours is so bright and sweet. I suspect she still is!!!
...lovely colors on your autumn page, too.

I have always been delighted by this avatar - long may it reign. The poem is sweet but I think it could be improved by producing a steadier rhythmic pattern. As it stands the flow is impeded by the inconstancy of the rhythm.
