Daughter Returns
DAUGHTER RETURNS
In the depths of my heart
a murmur took up the beat
as a glow of love began to heat,
and fill my being with anticipation
that once again I would see
the sight of her so pleasing to me.
A void existing so deep
within the recesses of my soul
filled quickly, and once again I felt whole.
My Darling Daughter came in focus
and tears of joy cleared my sight
as her aura began to light
around her for all to see.
I love you sweetheart, you are everything to me.
Though I know the inevitable will come true,
I'll cherish this time my Darling Daughter with you
LOVE DAD
