My daughter is my greatest gift on earth It's been this way since day I gave her birth T'will be this way till day I close my eyes and silent lie beneath the starry skies Yet while I live, I'll treasure her embrace, and thank the Lord for touching her with grace I'll be content in knowledge that she's near To sweetly calm my worry with her cheer I'll let her guide my feeble faltering frame What joy I feel when calling out her name This time that's left to me, her smile will bless I long to see her glow in wedding dress And once my girl is settled, free from strife When she leaves home to be a loving wife I'll pray to see her children, every one Then it won't matter if my days are done For some things never change, I'm sure you see My love for her will match eternity A daughter is a piece of heaven's best When she's secure and loved, my heart can rest Eileen Manassian To my daughter, Shereen Nataly Ghali, with all my love

She is beautiful, Eileen, our children and our lives are our blessings. We worry about our children no matter how old they are newly born or 60 years of age that is the gift we have been blessed with. Then they marry with double blessing to enjoy the loving grandchildren. Beautiful poem sweetheart... hugs

Thanks ever so much, Eve. You've captured my sentiments so well. The beautiful thing about her being this age is that she often times is my counselor. :) It's good to have a strong independent woman who is also a daughter and friend. Blessings on you, dear...and thanks for the visit.
