I am my daughter’s mother.

I still dream. She follows her dreams.

I am my daughter’s mother.

I read to get lost in other times and places. She reads to understand the psyche.

 I am my daughter’s mother.

I observe life so that I may write. She finds adventure so that she may write.

I am my daughter’s mother.

I once taught and guided her. She now teaches and guides me.

I am my daughter’s mother.

I pray for her safety, love, and happiness. She prays I take care of myself.

I am my daughter’s mother.

I am her mother, a giver of life to her. She is my daughter, a life gift to me.
