Her Poem

From the moment our eyes first met I knew I was complete. Your baby soft skin against my chest Your deep blue eyes defining my soul. Someone taken away and a Blessing given. How miraculous the way things work in the Kingdom of Heaven. You grow so quickly, your changing so much. From the look in your eyes to the feel of your touch. You test the limits around you, see how far I'll let you go. Doing thing's behind my back You don't realize I already know. Your curls so light and bouncy Your giggle so strong and true I realized the day we met... why I was born It was so I could give birth to you. Now your going to be a young women someday And a beautiful one at that. Let me lend you some words of wisdom As I set you on my lap You'll have your heart broken Maybe one time, maybe two times, could be three. Just know I'm always here for you, If you want to share it with me. There are going to be questions, I realized that long ago. I PROMISE to listen carefully before I answer no. Stay strong with who you are Only change if it's for the best I'll try not to over-react when you decide to leave the "Nest". Love yourself before others But please be selfless just the same If you ever get the chance Make sure you dance in the rain And when you feel. Feel completely, no matter what you become or do. Know that your mommy will always be there I FOREVER WILL LOVE YOU.
