From pain, to hope, to joy

To my daughter

   I look with love into your eyes

I see the pain you can't disguise

Offer my arms, comfort and care,

Hugs to help with the grief you bear.

         
     I look with love into your eyes,

 I see the hope … and yes, surprise

 A glad embrace, rejoicing too

 Your special news? A babe is due!



       I look with love into your eyes

 I see both joy and gladness rise

 I hold and bless this special one

 Most precious gift - new life's begun.
