For Miranda

I have been blessed With the most wonderful child. Even through her teen years When her friends ran wild. She was my rock When her father walked out. She's the reason I went on When I was in doubt. She phones me daily Just to say "hi". She knows what I'm feeling, To her, I couldn't lie. I see a younger me When I look in her face. We are so much alike, Take life at the same pace. She ends each conversation With an "I love you". And of course my reply Is "I love you, too". She's made my world better In more ways than she'll know. She's my one in a million And I love her so. My gratitude to God I will never stop giving, For my beautiful Miranda Who's made life worth living. for Linda Marie's `One in a Million' Contest
