Daughter

Written by Adam Elwood

The sun rises and shines in

her eyes. The world in her hands.

Oh, this one has great big plans. I’ll love

you until my chest is still. You’ve taught me

to breathe. You’ve taught me to feel.

I’ll love you until the day I die.

I love you, no lie.

    What a beautiful poem. And as I read, I can’t help but think about the children’s songs or books that it sparks in my memory. Thank you. =)
