Daughter – A Blessing by Swati Sethi
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
