Daddy’s Girl By Paul Wilson Swing me higher daddy you’d say past the clouds I want too fly To the other side of the rainbow higher than the birds in the sky A dare devil you’ve always been taking chances with no fear Never one to wear dresses and bows still you were Daddy’s little girl dear Your childhood years passed by so fast before I knew it you were a teenage girl We shared special times with each other as you explored your grown-up world I made it thru sleepovers with your friends keeping me up with your silly little games They were like daughters too me I still remember all of their names Driving lessons took their toll on me as you went swerving down the highway Not so fast…keep it straight …easy on the break keep your eyes on the road I’d say You had me wrapped around your fingers people use too say to me and you I had you spoiled that way I’d say that’s what daddy’s are suppose too do Seems like only yesterday too me I walked you down the aisle You gave your heart too another that day I kissed you with a tear stained smile I can still see you swinging in my mind wanting to go higher than a rainbow I think about those special times we shared you will always be Daddy's girl you know ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul [This message has been edited by Sunshine (06-30-2005 08:51 AM).] |

I can still see you swinging in my mind wanting to go higher than a rainbow I think about those special times we shared you will always be Daddy's girl you know yes, they will, and they never fully understand that, until they have their own and the cycle is repeated...love to you and yours paul, this was simply marvelous |

It is very nice to see that there are Daddy's out there that take their relationship with their daughters to heart. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
