Daddy's Little Girl

Contributed by karoody on Monday, 24th February 2003 @ 04:40:00 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



I remember climbing in your lap as a baby,

Seeing that look in those big brown eyes,

Hearing that soothing voice-

Knowing Daddy was proud of his little girl.

Years went by and I got the phone call....

"Daddy isn't doing well," was the heart-breaking news.

Tried to deny it, you were supposed to be invincible-

And there were still so many things we had to share,

Still so many ways I had to make you proud.

I stopped coming around as much

For the weight you had lost,

The pain in your eyes-

Told the truth I wasn't ready to see.

And as much as I tried to hide,

Daddy's little girl wasn't doing well at living.

Now those precious days are gone,

Fate has decided on another plan for your soul.

Your loving memory lives on in my heart,

But, oh, how I long to see those brown eyes once more.

So that I can help you undeerstand the distance,

Show you how I loved and adored you,

And see if Daddy is still proud of his little girl.

A wonderful tribute to love is this poem. I have no doubt your father smiles looking over your shoulder. Godbless---Russ

My daughter and I are so close that I can't help but be moved by this piece. Heartfelt and sincere it tugs at me, making me want to rush home and hold my daughter tenderly in my arms.

Nice write.
