Daughter – A Blessing by Swati Sethi

Being a daughter is a blessing of God,
When little, her feet are considered footprints of the Lord,
With her chirps sounding as the music from the chord,
She tries to roam around her parents like a flexible cord.
Truly, being a daughter is a blessing of God.

When grown up, she gets to be the best friend to her mother.
Taunting and scolding him, she holds the golden chance to be her father’s mother,
She guards her family like a sharpened sword.
Truly, being a daughter is a blessing of God.

She is gifted with the power of reading her parents’ heart,
Knowing when they need care and when they are hurt,
Her heart beats for them and prays for their wellbeing from the Lord,
Truly, being a daughter is a blessing of God.

However, there is always a pain hidden in her heart,
That she always tries to keep apart,
Who will love her parents without the greed of any reward,
Truly, being a daughter is a blessing of God.

Thinking who will listen to her parent’s unspoken words,
She feels afraid to fly away from them like the birds,
She is empowered to be utter emotional yet firm as a rod,
Truly, being a daughter is a blessing of God.
