You are my oldest angel. <br />Your name will go untold. <br />At first you were too young for this. <br />Now you are too old. <br /> <br />Just so you know I love you. <br />Your thoughts, your smile, your heart. <br />You've been with me through darker days, <br />but you loved me from the start. <br /> <br />It's strange to look you eye to eye <br />and see how much you've grown. <br />I wonder where we'll end this journey. <br />Will it be far that you will roam? <br /> <br />Even though you are much older <br />than a ''baby'' or a ''child''. <br />Don't go thinkin' you're all grown up. <br />The world out there is wild.<br /><br />Mary Nagy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unknown-angel/
