I Have A Little Girl

I have a little girl
And I have big dreams for her.
These dreams are different
but no less than that of others

Someday she would run to me
when i would call her name
And will pull me by the arm
And urge me to play a game.

I dream that she would come from school
and tell me about her day
And I would listen with tears in my eyes
For all that she has to say.

Someday she would jump, dance and draw
And would achieve her best
And I would be able to close my eyes in peace
when I finally lay to rest

I know as years have gone by
many of my dreams have come true
I feel so proud of her
for all that she can do.

And the tiniest of her achievements
makes me happier than ever
for they are solid little steps
in the path of my big dreams for her.
