Daddys Girl

You stole his heart right from the start
For just one look and he was hooked

His darling Princess ~ His Sweetest Pea
Then you became ~ His Ratatouille

You made his day ~ You made his night
You shared so much of life together

He’s in your heart ~ He’s in your soul
You’re Daddys Girl ~ now and forever…

Written on Father's Day 21st June 2020 for my granddaughter

Thank you dear Jan, she really loved this poem as it truly summed up their love for each other. They did so much together it is heartbreaking that he is no longer here for her. Thank you Jan for your lovely comments. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

Bless you dear Vijay, you know exactly what I mean, though sadly now he is gone and I wrote this for her, to remind her of his love. Hoping you are well. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
