My Daughter
"The first day I set eyes on you",
"I was like a babbling fool",
"When your eyes met mine I could feel my insides turn upside down",
"My body was like jelly with no bones to hold me","To think that I carried you for nine months",
"As you grew older you spoke your first word",
"It brought me to the ground with surprise",
"For it was a funny word for you to have spoken",
"For someone so young it was wonderful to my ears","The way you made your first step was a triumph on its own",
"The funny things you have done in the past have brought joy to my life",
"You have done things that have brighten my days gone by",
"My little princess they are in my memories I will hold forever as time passes me by".
