Strong, confident, gentle and sure
Intelligent and sweet, silly and demure
Your laughter fills my days
Your smile brightens my world
Teasing me one minute hugging me the next
Asking my advice about everything and anything in life
Watching me write, following me through the garden
Questions upon questions spilling from your mind
My answers, silly as they may be, seem to be enough
Asking me about love, asking is it real, does it hurt
Asking me to tell you the story of how Daddy and I met
Teasing me yet again about the look upon my face
Giggling and saying that Daddy has that same look
Asking me again and again if I will ever leave
And I answer that only when my time has ended upon this earth
You smile and hug me tight, whispering into my hair
I love you Momma, I don't care if you are not blood
And I whisper back, I love you too my little one
My daughter, not of blood but of love

watching you write
peeking into the garden

voila!
