The Blooming Fairy

For my first born, Sofia.


She wears the face of a fairy
Her eyes, deep with intensity
Make you think of prairies
Inviting a walk in the country.

She travels the skies to search
For the secret of the universe
Her soul longing to rule her world
But struggles to find grandeur.

She needs the approval of her peers
To feel her worth, for she cannot see
The true beauty lurking deep
And I pray to find the one who can help her be free.

So she can fly like the fairies
Her eyes, deep with intensity
As she hovers over prairies
And makes the flowers bloom pretty.

What a sweet dedication to your daughter, Caroline. Children have such wonderful imaginative powers. I used to pretend I could fly too. Like the image of Sofia hovering over the prairies and using her magic to make the flowers bloom. Beautiful poem -- a delight to read! Love, Carolyn
