The Memory of Love

One day by the ocean, 
Under the stars,

She will pick up 
A handful of sand;

And, 
She will know 

That each grain of  sand,
Each drop of water,

Each star in the sky,
Or leaf from a tree,

Each drop of her blood

Every molecule of air 
That she breathes

Is a gift from her Father

Saying thank you,

For being my daughter.
