My Blessing.

My Blessing

On a warm May day.
In a time since past.
My life forever changed.
How very very fast.

I was blessed with a blessing.
A gift from up above.
From angels in the heavens.
To me they gave a love.

Read with me one moment.
For that you may behold.
This story of a daughter.
It's a tale that needs told.

Seventeen years ago it happened.
This life changing event.
My little girl came to see me.
Here is how it went.

A cry filled my ears.
I rushed right over to see.
Then stared down in amazement.
To what looked up at me.

Now at this very moment.
A new life began to start.
Plus a father, daughter bond.
One which will never part.

I reached down and grabbed her.
Then held her in my arms.
As i stared into her beauty.
I got lost in her charm.

Her skin was that of silk.
The softest I've yet felt.
As I slowly caressed it.
My heart began to melt.

Her face bright like the sun.
Which ever shines on me.
Eyes like that of diamonds.
The most precious I've yet to see.

Her cheeks a red like roses.
The reddest of there kind.
A nose so small and slender.
Yet with beauty so Divine.

I held her in my embrace.
Tightly into my shell.
I welcomed her to this earth.
Then promised to keep her well.

Here now concludes my story. 
I  prey you all can see.
How deep this fathers love goes.
What my daughter means to me.

Now thank you all for reading.
This tale i needed to tell.
Now behold everyone my daughter.
For her name is Abigail.
