I was asked, "Is she yours?"
She is and couldn't be more.
While my blood flows not in her veins,
To see her struggle brings me such pains!
As a baby, she cooed and wriggled with such art,
Instantly she won a place in my heart
And with this she became mine
As if she were my blood line.
Her beautiful eyes do twinkle and shine
As she tells her grandpa of her latest books.
She's reeled me in with no line or hooks.
My heart holds no doubt she's mine.
I've watched her develop and grow
Into a beautiful young maiden.
I had no way to know
Our souls would be so laden.
Her family was given a gift divine
To teach, to train to have for a time.
I know that God, for her has a plan.
Because of her, I'm a better man.
She is and couldn't be more.
While my blood flows not in her veins,
To see her struggle brings me such pains!
As a baby, she cooed and wriggled with such art,
Instantly she won a place in my heart
And with this she became mine
As if she were my blood line.
Her beautiful eyes do twinkle and shine
As she tells her grandpa of her latest books.
She's reeled me in with no line or hooks.
My heart holds no doubt she's mine.
I've watched her develop and grow
Into a beautiful young maiden.
I had no way to know
Our souls would be so laden.
Her family was given a gift divine
To teach, to train to have for a time.
I know that God, for her has a plan.
Because of her, I'm a better man.

Kent, What a beautiful verse. It touches my heart and I agree with you that love makes it all so.
That is beautiful Dad!
Beautiful.
Having a loving family is a great comfort. I appreciate all of the verses and feelings. Love has great power. I am thankful for a family that sees the positive side of each other. Each person is great value to me. I feel great love for Brenda and Tim and my prayers are with Aubrey daily. Give my love to them and Cloe also. Grandma Gatha
