I came here searching for a Jewel -
From the depths of the emerald sea...
For a glimmering light,
In the depths of celestial skies...
And I see I have found them both,
Within the chasms of your eyes........


-Written by my father for me.

Your father and you must have been very close, how wonderful that he could express his love for you in that way.

We fathers should all share such jewels with our daughters. Sounds like a good man. Thanks for sharing in turn.
