There were no signs. There were no indications. Could you have just happened by chance? Or, were you destined to be?
Like any other bedtime story, shaped by dreams and words, this one is the craziest I've ever heard. But maybe in the middle within our Book of Fate resides a new beginning, where unknown fortunes wait.
In every cell inside I felt ... the gift ... that which cannot be explained. It's there for only my eyes to see. Your vibrancy engulfs me with the brilliance of knowing who you are: every affection of me.
Nothing is truer than these words I now declare to you: I have loved you wholeheartedly from the first time I laid eyes on you. From the first breath that you drew you became my universe!
Yes, my blood runs in you, but where shall it take you? what strength might it lend you? No matter where you come from, my angel, you are now my princess to keep.
When I am with you, emotions unknown flow through me. When I touch you, no love I've ever known is the same. More than any word can capture, and more than you will ever know, at my very first sighting I loved you.
You did a fantastic job with your final edition. I am so very happy to see this turn out so well.
The ideas, emotions, and now final form have all led to this being a very powerful piece and I consider your daughter to be very lucky to have a father that loves her so much.
I have noticed two typos:
"vibrancy" in stanza three has a "q" in it,
the word "no" in stanza five should be "now".
This piece came a long way and I wish you the absolute best in your blessing of fatherhood.
This brought back to me moments that my father spent with me in my childhood. I've always seen our relationship through my eyes, never really understanding his adoration for me. That's probably why over the years now, I have started taking him for granted.
Your poem put a lot of my selfishness into perspective for me. I feel like going home right now and hugging him tight for loving me so much.
Thank you, it was beautiful.
(((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))
- much love, light and laughter, ananya.

What can I say about this beautiful gift? Your daughter is truly blessed and I'm envious.
Sad really, but this is how you end up when you spend your whole life seeking the sentiments you spell out so eloquently here. May you continually let your daughter know just how wonderfully she is loved.
