what dreams do you have
fair child of mine
your brown eyes twinkle
rivalling stars glowing in your room
your belly laughter peals
reading books on princesses, frogs and goats
do you know that treasures
are under your pillows every night
do you know that your hands
hold the magic key to unlock any doors
when you gaze up at the blue skies
believe you can fly like a bird if you want to
when you dwell upon wide open seas
imagine possibilities of being ship's captain
chase every rainbow in your childhood,
run after turtles and hares in all the races
every day is beautiful and precious,
and sharing your gifts mean blessings tenfold
i may not be the perfect mother all the time
but know this, i will always love and believe in you
