Cory Long Poet Free verse

Daughters Love

I shall be telling this with a sigh" 
Robert Frost
A young girl exploring and free
makes a mess for mommy to clean.
Never meaning to but making life hard. 
When you say no, she’ll run and hide her tears.
As your heart breaks inside 
 you want to share the tears she cries.
Just when you’ve had enough, 
she comes and gives you a hug. 
Looking up with those big brown eyes. 
Struggling as she climbs your thigh. 
Sitting in your lap she  cuddles up 
giving you a kiss and a hug.
 That’s when you know a daughters love..
