For this is a gift
of greatness
Love which lays down
its life for a friend
The kind more evident
than false pretense
Bigger than
FAITH
Larger than
HOPE
The greatest gift
I wish for you-
to love and be loved
Oh sweetness this is so pure and loving. Margo is fortinate to have a loving mother like yourself to love and help guide her throughout her life

Hi Jewell,
What an incredible gift of love for your daughter. You can feel the love seep out of every pore of the poem. I can imagine the sheer joy she received when she read it. This is one gift that will be framed for a lifetime!
Absolutely Beautiful!
Helvi :o)
Happy Easter to you and your whole family :o)

Love can conquer all and you have plenty ..which also grows within your family ..you express so much love in each line you write and one can feel that warm glow as we read your work...Keep it coming through all that you do.

Wow! I love this tribute to your daughter. Happy Birthday and many more! This is a lovely free verse with so many wishes on her special day. They grow up too fast.
That makes us old- right? LOL "Faith that moves mountains, Serenity in a storm, Love" that can lay down its life for a friend and Hope are all wonderful words in this poem. Best of all is the expression of your love for her. Great job! Volunteer Angel

Even with never having met your daughter I just know that she will keep this poem with her always and maybe someday make it into a song she can play on an acoustic guitar at a popular nightspot somewhere. The piece is full of a mother's well wishes for her child.

Inner Sanctum,
This is absolutely beautiful!! It is so heartfelt.Your love for your daughter shines in this poem. I think it is one of the better ones of yours I've read. Considering they're all so good, that's really saying something. Maybe it's that I have a daughter for whom I wish all of these, as well. (BTW--no way you're old enough to have a 21 year old!! I've seen your pic.) Anyway, I love this!
The only line that wasn't quite as strong as the others was "The kind more evident." Mostly the "The kind" part. Maybe something along the lines of, 'A token more evident." That's a tough line. I guess token isn't really something that would be evident, but it would be authentic or genuine, though. Just an idea to get your juices flowing, if it is something you wish to even take another look at.
The poem is very good! I am very glad to have read it!
