A Wildflower

A Wildflower

A Poem by MsJewel
"

a poem I wrote for my daughter ~ you are stronger than you think sweetheart

"

 

 

~~~

She has her grandmother’s eyes

 

and the spirit of a butterfly

beautiful, graceful, carefree

 

A wildflower in my garden of hope

she dances with the wind

and thrives in the light

delicate and yet..

 

She never hides from a storm

 

She is strong enough

to catch raindrops

but still needs rainbows

 

The same rainbows

that tether her heart to mine

forever

 

She is a wildflower

with the spirit of a butterfly

and her grandmother’s eyes

~~~

Your daughter is the apple of your eye...the light in your heart. The maternal love and the respect you have for her are vivid in this incredible tribute to Hannah, Julie. If she never hides from a storm, it is because she has learned to weather them watching you! I liked the repetition of the first verse. That was so effective. Gorgeous poetry. Lydi**

'A Wildflower'
MsJewel,
It is precious to have daughters, and granddaughters.
Oh we wish the best for them and cheer them on.
It is just what moms do and even dads.
I really appreciated the warmth of seeing some
thing beautiful and the metamorphosis in a
butterfly.We can also find strength in the mem-
ory of our grandmothers. It is passed down
Beautiful!

You daughter obviously has a very captivating free spirit, judging by the beautiful descriptive picture you paint of her through the imagery of your poetic lines !

Thank you Joyce! Hugs, Julie
The love you have for your daughter shows in every poem you write about her. I hope you are collecting them and binding them in a book for her and her children (someday) to enjoy. Trace

I haven't done that yet Trace. Perhaps one day I will. Hugs, Julie
she is a gem...surely is by the way you depicted her so elegantly.

A beautiful poem. The wildflowers are one of my favorite things. I like how you use the word 'The wildflower". Create a vision of a beautiful spirit. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
