I Have a Daughter

I have a daughter, she was my first. A mother to her, I was the worst. I divorced her dad, when she was just two. What a time I had. All we went through. I remarried a man, who drank too much. Divorced again, and not much luck. At twelve years old, a decision she made. To live with her dad, to this very day. Now she's fifteen, and a beautiful girl. Honor roll queen. Life's in a whirl. During the twelve years that she lived with me, she helped raise her sisters. There are more than three! She's beautiful. She's happy. She's one of a kind. This may sound sappy, But i am glad that she's mine. Her hair is not curled. Her eyes are not blue. She's a blessing to this world. My baby, I love you!
