His Little Girl Poem by Susan Williams

His Little Girl

Rating: 5.0


.
.
She looks all moonspun
as fragile as butterfly wings
her joy dancing around her like confetti
she might as well been candlelight calling him home
mischief gamboling around her like a puppy
love falling in step beside her the rest of her life
but for now her feet pattering headlong to her Daddy
and he gave a shout of laughter thinking
Time is especially precious
in the hands of a child.

Tom, you keep me going, my friend! ! ! ! I've been absent without official leave for some time now but it felt like a homecoming to see a message from you on my latest effort! Tom. I give you a million stars just for being you

An insightful expression on childhood is made hauntingly.The inscription of little girl is so fantastic. Her appearance as a butterfly, her joy dancing around her like confetti, mischief gamboling are touchingly delineated here. I appreciate this lovely poem. Thank you dear Susan madam for sharing this gem.10
