Sam.

eyes of brown, hair to match, a smile forever 
                                         and her face...
charm of a rose, passion of life, eyes wide open
                                         her emotions not to replace,
words of wisdom, thoughts so true, look... listen...
                                         all done with grace,
laughing with innocents, wondering the unknown 
                                         seeing all the beauty in this place,
a life given to me on an August day eleven years ago
                                          a daughter to embrace,
