Poetry - From my Mom

To My Daughter

I can't tell you how proud I am of you
There just aren't words enough
To see all the things you do
Makes my heart swell with pride
You've taken a situation
that some would just sit and cry,
Made it a revelation;
A shout for all womankind!
The early days were kind of rough
not all good times and light.
In spite of all, you came out tough
You know what's wrong or right.
My love for you is strong and true
We've walked a lot of miles.
I hope to walk a million more
Arm in arm, smile to smile.
