This is published on poetry.com and also in a few books....however, I thiiiiink if I was to go back and edit it would not refer to Daddy because it was from MY heart...but still, it was from my heart in Oct. 03.
Daughter
For Kayleigh
Delicate tiny hands
Grasping awkwardly at hair
Aroma of baby powder
Dancing through the air
Wonderful lashes long
Batting, eyes gazing into mine
Gummy toothless smiles
Melt my heart each time
Hair of gold so fine
No mortal can hope to tame
Skin of silk, pale as ivory
No fault, no hate, no shame
A gift unparalleled to any
This child has brought such bliss
A mother and father eternally thankful
For their daughter's sweet kiss

 Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, “I will try again tomorrow”. Mary Anne Radmacher
