When everything else is put aside,
the need to have is forgotten,
the eye on the prize becomes a secondary notion,
for the forefront becomes our living breathing soul
~
she was born into our world
suddenly vulnerable in need of touch,
we did reach out
I held my little girl and everything around me
suddenly softened.
I didn’t know any other need beyond
having a cry,
because just then I suddenly knew love,
and she needed me more than I could ever possibly
need anything else.
~
her eyes were blue and the search had begun,
I looked inside to marvel in her beauty,
her real spontaneity,
her independence while being held,
cradled in our arms,
she was suddenly free,
without ever turning back,
she might go forward,
we would hope and pray,
and she did,
though there is the occasional turn and reflection,
she always knew her way,
allowed us to follow.
~
From that day forward we walked with her
delightfully met later by him,
and we all walked together,
indescribable love.
Absolutely beautiful! What a way to honor your daughter.
