My Daughter
A daughter is,
sunshine on my face.
When my mind is weak and weary,
she's my saving grace.
If I'm feeling pains from life,
she knows just what to say.
Now I know the meaning of,
" out of the mouths of babes".
I see pure innocense,
in a six year olds blue eyes.
I always try to feel her pain,
but her strength surpasses mine.
When we're seperated,
and we talk on the phone,
she surprises me out of the blue,
when she sings the line from "our song",
" have I told you lately that I love you?".
