    Well in the last stanza it certainly looks like you taught her well Marc, that is a wonderful tribute to you. This is a very heart warming poem, I thoroughly enjoyed the read and the outcome was beautiful. Thanks for a soft touch of the heart Marc. Excellent poem, well penned indeed.--Melvina--
