To my Daughter

You and I are so alike
yet see things so
very differently

You struggle to find
your own way
quietly and distantly.

Yet right down to your core
I can see myself in you
so amazing this chemistry.

I know there are
things you think
I'll never understand.

Maybe this is true
just know I'll always be
here to hold your hand.

Remember always that
I was once a
blooming flower.

Let nothing and
no one ever
take your power.

We are strong women
you and I,That's the thing
you see.

I know we won't always see eye to eye,
I learn from you
you learn from me.

...So take this simple poem
and hold it in your heart


and know that in your core
We will never be apart.

What a beautiful sentiment. "I learn from you, you learn from me." Very wise.
