Calmly She Sleeps |

Our pride of a marriage sleeps Quietly in the arms of night On her bed of security Embracing the enchantments of dream A face of calm In a peace filled room Dimly lit by a watchful light The bed sheets tossed and twisted I straighten her bed I draw the blind while saying Goodnight darling Daddy loves you lots Lots and lots No reply But I feel she will sleep sounder with my love With the same words that fill her room each night I love you darling I love you |

This reminds me so much of a song about scarlet ribbons... a lovely tribute to a special little one... [This message has been edited by Lady In White (edited 08-03-2001).] |

Very good. I'm guessing this was a very difficult write, difficult to put in words just how a father feels about his daughter. Very good. |

Embrace these moments forever. They go so quickly. You are creating memories even still, while she sleeps. Very touching piece. Thank you for your good wishes. I feel great today! Sincerely Regina |
