I watch you move full of grace,
Dim light showing beauty's face.
Moving to the little child, asleep in bed
Wished her sweet dream and this is what you said.
My baby girl as i watch you sleep,
Into your bedroom i had to creep.
Despite fear of waking you I had to see
The great miracle God gave me

This is a very heartfelt poem. Good job, but I think maybe you wanted to say "full of grace. "

Love isn't a miracle in life, the miracle of life is love.

Wow, this is so sweet! It's very different from most of your work that i've read, but I like it. And I like the subject you chose to write about.
