A Mother Watches Her Daughter Stretch Her Wings

Nursery Rhymes Poetry Contest Sponsor-Eve Roper A Mother Watches Her Daughter Stretch Her Wings There was no stopping my daughter's quest Like a baby blue jay leaving the nest She would take to the neighbors with a zest With play in her eyes, she would meet her guest A cat, dog, and garden laying at rest My little one reached in her Sunday best As the trio looked on with warm jest Gently she met her hosts without protest As she brought water jugs filled to the crest The water cure left the trio blessed And for my daughter, she grew from this test Tears filled my eyes as her flight was all dressed
