Precious Time

With heavenly glow surrounding you,
I watch as you sleep;
I wonder where you may go
when you take your life's leap

I watch you breathe...so quiet
like the time that has already fallen;
I know the days aren't endless,
and one day you will find your callin'

So right now, I watch you closely
because I've been given such a gift;
for you are my daughter with that glow,
and with my spirit... you always uplift.
