To My Daughter



"Out among the lullabies,
Where you and I began..
A journey into an unknown land.
You touched my heart, and brought it joy
You cried your tears , I dried your eyes...

I took your hand, and tried so hard
To show you the way
And, thus, we traveled thru the years...
Past obstacle and strife...

From child, to girl, to woman...
Through the tangled web of life.
Through broken hearts and broken dreams
We have prevailed, the race we run

But holding court with angels...
Is never an easy task..
There have been days we thought
We'd never speak again..
Yet with all we've faced
Never have I felt so close...
To man...or God...or anyone."
I do believe YOU are my
BEST FRIEND!
