Lovely Samara

Just two days ago you where

Closed in a womb

 

In safe surroundings

Water and mother's heart beat

Where the songs you heard

 

Now a sheet embrace

Strangers and whispers welcome

While you dream unknowns

 

I’m imagining

Being a goody fairy

Drawing sparkling spells

 

Tracing first talent:

You can become all you dream

A good magician

 

Draw artistic paths

With every one of your steps

Dance along with all

 

Never hesitate

To be sincerely yourself

No need of fake masks

 

Dive in this vast world

Liberated from all fears

A free mind to love

 

Between highs and lows

Share all your experiences

What ever you learn

 

May your battle field

Be among flowers and words

Born written in poems

Ok you knocked me out with this write; you nailed the goal and offered such a sweet note of declaration for your child to bare witness to. Especially, when the expressions can be read and heard in their hearts sensitivity. Than they will once again be remained of your love for them thru those early words, which lead to your actions of guidance being placed upon them as they matured.
