A Father's Love Oh what a gift that day Such a tiny baby girl With eyes that seemed to say I will love you always Watching you grow was such joy The sweetness never faltering An angel always,even when coy Love was so easy to bestow upon you Always giving with a heart so warm Never down the bright eyes remained Your dad is proud to have seen your charm Precious angel,my love for you will never wane |

Your missive reads of sweetness and devotion...what a gift your daughter has in you, as well, to be able to recognize and express your sentiment in this tender way. |

Well to be honest you have made me cry with this one...Maybe you could give my father some pointers =o) Great poem! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

Beautiful. Lovely. Inspirational. Exquisite. Need I say more? ~Astraea "Sometimes stars can only be seen in darkness." "Sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier things." |

I can very well relate, I have two daughters and one son. But if this truly is your experience then as wondrous as this is it will pale when one day that daughter looks up at you with those same beaming eyes glistening with tears as she holds up a bundle to you and says: "Dad, look at my daughter, isn't she beautiful" At that moment you will have all her joy and yours in your heart. |

Hello Richard I'm a new guy in this town. This hit home for my heart, having a 4 month old daughter it's more than mind imagery. Sincerely, Paul |
