My Girl


My tiny laughing
Dimpled child,
With eyes so
Big and brown,
Smiled at me
Through endless talk,
And reached to
Hug me tight!

Her will so strong,
Her heart so soft,
Her mind so firm
And clear,
No sitting on the
Fence for her,
Each thought
So shared out loud!

And then I blinked,
And suddenly,
There she stood one day,
All grown up
And beautiful
And dancing
Into life!

I pinched myself
And blinked a bit
And wondered
At her ways.
I stepped right back
And watched with pride
As she smiled
And laughed in love!

My darling girl,
My first born child,
Such love I have for you.
I simply wish
You happiness
Within the arms of love!

Joy Weare.
27th March, 2005.
