Poetry: Love between a mother and daughter

by Jane Coryell

Created on: July 28, 2008

Our Baby Girl
Little, small and delicate...
yet bold and strong.
I know you will be what you want in life
and I hope that life will be good to you.

Our baby, the end of our love created.
You shine. I love to watch you grow.
So full of life and magic and wonder!
With each new day, you bring forth excitement.
I look at you and its hard to realize
the pretty little girl you've grown to be-
from that small, red swollen face into a
blue-eyed, bouncy, curly headed burst of energy.
You take something so simple and turn it into joy!
I look forward to what your life will bring.
I want to watch you grow and mature and see what you seek out.

Be gentle with her God.
She is small and fresh.
Take it easy on her and watch over her when I cannot see.
Take this little life and mold it into
great things that may reflect the greatness of you.
Let her seek the pure things in life and
pass by the things that might destroy her.
Guide her, touch her, teach her, show her
that all good things will come through you.
And help her God, through the rough times.
Watch over her when I cannot see.
