Notes About The Poem

The inspiration for this poem, is my beautiful daughter Jessica. She has my heart and always will. 

My Girl

She is funny and smart
Sensitive and caring
I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful heart

She will not be treated unfairly
Carefully, she guards her heart
If you wound her, she will take you on squarely

Her dreams are in her hands
Your child is in charge 
All you can do is sit back as she lands
 
You marvel at this beautiful child
Your heart warms with joy as you watch her
She is a part of you always, your heart has smiled
