My Daughter
You are beautiful, wonderful, and powerful
Your creator was careful
Let none tell you otherwise
He put into perfect position
All your wonders in good condition
I attest for I took part in your creation
Call me your father
My name is Griffins
My daughter
I write to you.
In the world I stay there are beasts and beauties
Hyenas and vultures
Men and dogs
Some allowed themselves to be dogs
Others lived with dogs
Others lived like dogs
You will see them around
Remain sober and sound
My daughter.
If we never get to see
I hope this will be
And you will read
You will heed
You will record well in deeds
And bless and plant healthy seeds
Pure breed
Protect from weed
Will you my daughter live my expectations?
Will you let the seeds bring forth harvest and celebrations?
