There are times when we as parents see a spark of ourselves in our kids and it’s that priceless moment when you feel every sacrifice you made as worthy.
This poem is a reflection of such a moment in my life.
A glittering star you are beginning to shine.
Amidst clouds of such uncertainty.
But your innocence and charm have lit every dark gloom.
Had never imagined my baby had grown.
Like a tiny bud, you are blossoming
Ready to enchant the world around you with your fragrance
There is still time for you to leave my nest.
It seems a lie I am trying to convince.
Rather than protecting you from the fall, it’s time to teach you to soar high above all.
My dearest daughter seeing a fragment of me in you has left me speechless and in total awe.
Those dreams of leaving an impact and making your own identity.
It seems I am discovering myself, dreaming once again with you.
But this I would promise me and you, ill walk you through every obstacle.
And make sure you just don’t dream like me but watch them become true.
