My Baby Girl

A Poem by Willard Wells
"

A birthday wish

"

My Baby Girl


As the night passes

thoughts of you fill my mind.


Fifty years ago

I awaited your birth.


Tomorrows the day

Celebrate your life.


Sorry I will not

See you or be with you.


I will miss you

Now as I have for many years.


Hoping for the time,

We can meet again.


Happy Birthday

My Dear Daughter.


I Will love you Forever.


Daddy

I do not know if it is distance or Heaven that separates you from your daughter. I lost a child and still face those Christmas Eve's with sadness. Nice write, I pray all is well. Valentine

Will, I can appreciate this poem as if we are standing in the same pair of shoes. There is a pain here that only a father that has had to do without can feel.
I do not know your your circumstances but, I wish you and your daughter togetherness and happiness forever. Time will make the lost time to be one day insignificant. My friend, all the best, this day and every day!
