A Mothers Bouquet

My dearest daughter, how special you are
Like magic dust from a falling star
All the pretty colors in a rainbow hue
Remind me so much of the beauty in you
Like the morning sun, your smile does glow
Shedding its warmth on those you know
A beautiful shine, like the moon at night
Bathing your face in the softest light
Add these up and you will see
Forever you’ll mean the world to me
A beautiful flower in a mother’s bouquet
Your soul blooms brighter every day

    A beautiful poem. It brought my daughter's pretty little face to mind while reading it. She's my tomboy princess... but I know that is only for now and I am reluctant to let it go too . I've been blessed with 4 children but only one daughter and watching her turning into a strong, intelligent, graceful, beautiful lady is both wonderful and miserable for me.

    s and best wishes always... ~Genie~

    Such a wonderful little ditty about your daughter. The rhythm and rhyme were perfect, allowing the words to roll right off my tongue like a little song.

    Well done with this, I loved it! (I'm sure your daughter will too)

    This put a huge... rather bittersweet smile on my face. I personally have no real relationship with my mother that I can be proud of... She is the type of person who needs drama so it's always been hard for us to get along and it makes me smile to read pieces about a mother daughter relationship that is as beautiful as this. Well done.
