Man, this is gorgeous! So full of loveliness! A resounding awwwh could be heard as the poem ended. What wonderful evoking of emotion-what a way to convey such an over-conveyed feeling!
And as usual your perfect flow and rhyme only helped your message through the minds (and hearts!) of your readers. I don't doubt that I'll return to read this poem again just to feel the beauty of it...

Really, thank you.

What a gift, so many people take for granted a parents love…it’s not a preexisting quality that everyone has…it takes an incredible heart to love someone more than everything else…more than the naughtiness and disappointing moments…more than everything. It is always such a beautiful thing to witness. Hats off to you! This is beautiful and I can only imagine how happy it made her!!!!

[Tate Morgan]

I hope it brought out tears as it did with her.

Your daughter is blessed to have a father who not only feels this way, but who expresses these feelings so beautifully. I especially love the last stanza - read it a few times; it could stand alone, with its sweet message and tree imagery!

[Tate Morgan]
