This weekend, my daughter let go of my hands and took her first steps. She didn’t look back. This original poem is dedicated to her and all the steps I will watch her take.
The Steps You’ll Take.
Dear Daughter.
The world is big
I know it’s very new
But,
If you look to me
I will always look to you
Dear Daughter.
Things move fast
There’s a lot to see
But,
You’ll never be alone
Because you’ll always have me
Dear Daughter.
You have Mom’s brain
So I know you’re smart
But,
Never forget
To use your Dad’s heart
Dear Daughter.
It won’t always be fair
You may not win
But,
It’s all within reach
Just keep up your chin
Dear daughter.
If you’re wise and kind
There’s nothing you can’t do
And,
You’ll reach our dreams
I will never stop loving you
