My sweet daughter..
‘A thing of beauty is a joy forever
its loveliness always increases it never
passes to nothingness’… it blooms forever
God’s special design with sweet fragrance of love He did send.
A special daughter, a mum, sis and always my most trusted friend.
Another year, another day and so dawns this wonderful today.
An angel a blessing from above as a babe in my arms you did lay.
The tears, the variable fears, you kissed them so gently away.
The laughter we shared, our treasured memories that will never decay
With a quality so flawless, with dignity you set about with good grace
Smiling away many frowns, you travel with a consistent steady pace..
Looking out the window, the white covered roof tops, I see your sis and you.
In the land of the sand dunes receiving surprises and hugs more than a few.
The distance, the contours between us, makes no difference Meli my sweetest.
I count not your candles but turn to God Almighty praying for your very best,
Good health, long life, God be with you, wherever you go, whatever you do...
A lady all grown, my pillar of strength and all my world is in the angelic you.
The unending happiness you brought brightened the long lonely days.
A beautiful dream, a wish my heart made and God sent you that day, my way..
