A poem to my daughter
Take my hand as we walk together
I'll try not to lead you astray

Know that whatever stress may come between us
My love you'll always have

My strength I'll give when you need it
My shoulder always there to lean on

Discipline will be firm
But tempered with understanding
And memories of my youth

As we walk together, if I should stumble
Try to understand that I too make mistakes
And like you, I'm still learning

Hold tight my hand
And we will walk the path together
