She's such a good girl, there's something special about her
She doesn't even hate her parents, or think their values are absurd
She's independent, and not persuaded by her peers
She don't have metal in her navel, or even rivets in her ears
She's kind of funny, in a cautious sort of way
She's not judgmental; "Whatever gets you through the day"
When she gets lonely, her heart is bursting at the seams
But she doesn't get discouraged, she turns her focus to her dreams
She's on a mission, she's gonna make it in this world
She don't need empty consolation when her agenda comes unfurled
She's not flamboyant, don't wear rocks or perm her hair
She don't have implants, and that's alright cause she don't care
She's no Curie', or Princess Di, or Margaret Thatcher,
But she's a good girl, there's something special about her

This is such a sweet poem! I'm sure that she has turned out this way because you're her dad!!! Nice to see you in the open forum for a change.

Jester this fantastic! I agree with Sharon here, I bet she's had a loving example and someone who cares a great deal for her to feel so confident! I have 3 kids...2 daughters and God help me when they get to that age.
