Purpleunicorn's Palace - Happy Daughter's Day!

A daughter is:

the happy memories of the past,
the joyful moments of the present,
the hope and promise of the future.

~Author Unknown~

A daughter is a joy forever.

My Daughter

I look into your eyes I see you're mind
I look into your heart I see you're kind
The things you say with only thoughts
Of people past forget-me-nots
And memories of a future soon to come

I look into your eyes I see past tears
I look into your heart I see your fears
The hopes and dreams you've always had
To live life happy, never sad
To have a rainbow for your very own

Like the views you've seen from mountaintops
That now seem far away
Or some future night on a moon lit beach
Of some enchanted bay

These things I say, you know are true
Though yet to be realized
I've looked at you and listened to
The you behind your eyes

Robert Longley

A daughter is a day brightener and a heart warmer!

When You need someone

When you need someone
to talk to
I hope you will
talk to me
When you need someone
to laugh with
I hope you will
laugh with me
When you need someone
to advise you
I hope you will
turn to me
When you need someone
to help you I hope you will
let me help you
I cherish and love
everything about you
And I will always support you
as a parent, as a person
and as a friend.

~Susan Polis Schutz~

A daughter may outgrow your lap,
but she will never outgrow your heart.

The Road Ahead Is Like the Road Behind

The road ahead is like the road behind.
The dreams achieved revise the dreams to come.
Mind shapes world, and new-shaped world shapes mind,
As what you are steps back from what you've done.
The deeper you resides in its own space,
Sheltered like a yolk from wind and tide,
Filled with unimaginable grace
To wander through the paradise inside.

Ambitious girl! Become what dream you will,
And sail across each dark, forbidding sea.
Within, the fawn will graze sweet meadows still,
Untouched by all the phantoms you will be.

by Nicholas Gordon

Daughters are like flowers,
they fill the world with beauty,
and sometimes attract pests.

A daughter is a gift of love;
given from God above.
