Make a Wish

Make a Wish - Poetry Contest Sponsor: Kim Merryman There lies a hope within my womanly maternal being, A wish that my sweet Ella grows to be smart and strong, Live a life so full of joy with a tender heart so freeing, In a world she most certainly feels she really belongs, May her essence be full of beautiful melodious songs. There lies a hope she stays as sensitive as she is today, Full of laughter with so many smiles to kindly share, May she lead a life never forgetting to stop and pray, With a twinkle in her big brown eyes for a natural flare, A wish that she stays compassionate, honest and fair.

A beautiful write, with honest hopes for the best future for your child, a very maternal write, although fathers must have similar desires and hopes.
