Ny first grandchild
14 years ago today you came into my life
you opened those dark eyes and chased away all strife
the sound of your voice was like nothing i had ever heard
my life forever changed, god had finally given our reward
so very thankful to your mom, she let me share your glow
every day I had special time with you, i watched you grow
when you started to walk i knew sadly i must let you fall
the years seemed to simply fly by we each gave our all
and now you no longer need my hand or even a hug
but surely deep in your youthful heart still my baby bug
what ever challenges or strife life may bring your way
you are truly and deeply loved and that will bring new day
no longer a child, now a young women almost fully grown
mind, heart, soul over flow with hopes, dreams your own
I hope you know no matter how very far apart we are
no matter what you are and always will be shining star
Taylor i know one day you will take this world by storm
from my heart i ask please don't be in a hurry as you transform.
