The beating of the heart
This is where it seems to start
I remember the way she felt in my womb
We were in love from the beginning
I couldn't wait to greet her
and kiss her tiny face.

Time has passed by quickly
And now she is packing up her bags
Leaving me once more to venture out into the world
To learn what I can't teach her.
Though I have taught her things that
books will never give her.

My daugher is my heart
but tomorrow she will part
To go to where life leads her
To build her even more
For one day she will be
a mother for herself
I love her more than words can say
and I know there's a different glow about
this day
for I'm so very proud of her
and she's my daugher for to stay
No matter how old she is
I will always let her know
that home is where the heart is
Love will just grow more and more
then one day she will know
that there's something quite special
between a mother and her daugher.


Tomorrow is her second year
to college she will go
but with her she will always
know that home is here to stay.

ITs hard letting go and hoping you have placed enough of you in your own children that they will continue to do whats right.  You express your desire to remain close with her and I am sure she will not go to far.  Best wishes

This is so sweet and your love for her shines like that of a thousand suns.

thanks Mark and Knight Dream, I gave her this poem , sometimes expressing myself at moments like these are very hard.
