You are the Queen of this playhouse called my life,
Your tea party laughter twinkles all around me,
And your smile chases away the clouds
Keeping me trapped inside.
Your ring-around-the-rosie antics are full of joy,
New things to discover around every corner,
With eyes full of doll-like innocence and delight,
Examining this real life Wonderland from all angles
With patty-cake playfulness and nursery rhyme glee.
And when the Sandman visits at the end of the day,
Your fairy tale adventures come to a happy end,
Eyes so droopy from counting sheep jumping over the moon,
As sleep descends with a Winkin', Blinkin', and Nod.
You are the Princess of this quiet little castle,
Your sugar-plumb dreams dance through the halls,
And your sweet presence chases away the demons
Lurking in the shadows of my past.

Heartwarming creativity
I loved this! What a wonderful gift to give your daughter. You captured the innocence and purity that is childhood. The magical freshness that an infant brings into a home was so eloquently brought to fruition. The last stanza pulled my heart strings.
"AND YOUR SWEET PRESENCE CHASES AWAY THE DEMON LURKING IN THE SHADOWS OF MY PAST"
That's an awesome line. May many blessings fall upon you and your fairytale princess
