A father feels every moment with his heart a daughter captures those brief spans of time making the wonder and awe increase with each breath that she softly passes while quietly sleeping or giggles out when Papa wants to play A mother lives to see her daughter love making her feel it deep within her baby heart growing with each playful moment stricken by every pain filled cry always there to fill her heart again A daughter is a singular joy to be cherished and led softly and in turn will reward her parents with more love than could possibly have existed forming the soul of a hope filled family |

~JBowie~ I come from the "other" side. I am the eldest of three daughters in my family. I am extremely close to my Dad & my Mom (bless her she's in heaven now). This poem really touched my heart. Thank you ever so much for sharing! The relationship and bond between child and parent is a forever lasting one, or at least that's how it should be! Great poem!!

thank you all for your kind words, I truly believe that I was not a full person until I had a child of my own to help fill my heart |
