From "coo's " and gurgles, <br />you led the way. <br />Into my heart, <br />as we often play. Toddlers and teens, <br />emotions were mixed. <br />Coming of age, <br />many things were fixed. Now your a woman, <br />a mother yourself. <br />Now I can only, <br />tell myself. Never look back <br />it's not worth the time <br />You energy should be, <br />in a steady climb. For love to unfold, <br />you must carry the load. <br />As often told, <br />you must always be bold, Change will not come. <br />for things that's been done.. <br />Your future depends, <br />on each setting sun. Faith, hope, and love, <br />a goal to obtain. <br />For it is God's plan, <br />so perfectly lain.<br /><br />Margaret Watts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-a-daughter/
