picture of my daughter when she was much younger (she's 16 now) |
Shine on little star
Claim your place in the sky; your light
shall not be obscured
You are a daughter
of the Sun and Moon, no lesser than
the many sons
Your beauty
illuminates the night
Your radiance
guides the way
Your fire
will protect you and those you love
Do not be daunted by the vastness
of the Heavens
They were made for you
to have a place to dance
and Poetry Jam, Face the Facts

she should read this...an inspirational post...thanks for sharing it ~
What a wonderful peace as the mother of three beautiful funny daughters it really touched me thank you
...a place to dance. This could be written for my daughters as well.... just loved the "melody" of this.
Oh yes!!! Dance on!! This is lovely, absolutely lovely! If we could teach our daughters one thing, it would have to be this...
What a beautiful poem celebrating your daughter! Her face radiates joy, as does your poem!
What great advice from a mother to a daughter, especially the last four lines, which made my heart sing.

the heavens made for a place for her to dance...that is beautiful...and what a treat you wrote her...
This is a beautiful celebration of the young womanhood blossoming in a girl-child. As the mother of daughters, I add my applause.
Oh what a lovely poem for your daughter, for all daughters!
Perfect!
And I'll bet she so loves having that picture posted, right? (grin)
I'm sure the awesome poem will make her feel better.
Beautiful and so endearing!
The face of youth and how they will grow on so many levels!
She looks like she is fun and filled with magic n' charm! I have a sixteen yr old, too ;D
I SO LOVE THIS POEM!!!!!! How tender and beautiful....I especially love the heavens being a place for her to dance. Just beautiful, as is her bright and shining face. Truly, a star could not shine any brighter.
This is such a joyous tribute to your daughter--and such a beautiful face! I hope you have shown it to her and that she is still aiming to dance among the stars. Thanks for visiting my blog as well.
This is so touching!!
