Wishes For a Daughter

WISHES FOR A DAUGHTER .   


May   she travel   through life
Smoothly   and  with  certainty .
May I  be given  the chance 
To be  with her on the journey .

May she always share her inner self
With   me  in confidence .
May I always be  privileged
To see  her secret   security .

May she speak to me without hesitation
Of everything that moves her .
May  I  be allowed  to hear her
Soft  voice  filling my empty ear .

May her laughter be the echo
Of   her   carefree  soul’s  peace .
May   I  recall  it  always
In   recesses  of   my   mind .

May  she  suffer no pain
From   my  clumsy  nearness .
May  I  delight endlessly 
In her pleasure and satisfaction .

And may she find true happiness
With  a  perfect  companion .
And  may I  see  that day arrive
And  share in   her joy .
