A Poem to my Daughter

The day I found you.
It seems like yesterday we were toying
With the idea of adding
When I found you here with me
It was overwhelmingly uplifting

Was a cloudy day I remembered,
Thunderstorm lurking.
But I had to walk to get some air
For I am unsure of my undertaking

Then God peeked through the sky
Parted the clouds aside
A bright ray of light shone through
How unusual a sight

I looked up in the sky
With eyes closed and you inside
God and all we loved sitting by His side
Reached out and held me tight

And I know
The sky will darken and brighten
The rain will come and go
Everything will be alright

Because I now have you
Always inside
Our souls
Forever, bind.
