Excellent

Congratulations, HarryT! This poem was adorable. The word "still" in the last line made me think you are remembering a now-grown child while looking back through the years. I love how poems, particularly emotional poems, can spark those interpretations. Nicely done.

This is a precious poem. I have five girls, all grown up. I wish that I could go back in time and spend more tender moments with them. We only have so long to influence them. Loving them unconditionally, guiding them through life by a Godly, moral example. Enjoy each moment you have with your daughter, it's a gift from God.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

You are so right. The crush of life often makes us lose perspective on what the really important things are. Thank you for your read and feedback.
