I was a Princess Once-
A Daughter's Lament
I was a Princess once to someone I knew
Someone who told me, "I'll take care of you."
In arms gentle but strong
I knew he could never do me any wrong.
Someone who told me, "I'll take care of you."
In arms gentle but strong
I knew he could never do me any wrong.
He was there to slay dragons that I feared.
We would often talk far into the night.
He was my Prince the one whom I loved
He knew how to make everything all right.
The days flew by all in a blur,
The dreams and the laughter we shared, passed.
My gentle, sweet Prince, wll visit no more,
Can true happiness ever really last?
I weep for the love that I knew once upon a time
but am thankful for all that we had.
My Knight, gentle and true who filled up my heart
was my wonderful, special, sweet, Dad.

Post a CommentVery well done! That was an enjoyable read.
Good one for Father's Day especially!
Ms. Medina, you are great, I had been reading a few of your poems and articles, I like your style and the way that you express yourself, from now on I wil be forward to reading all of your work. I also invite you to see my work.
Very sweet. :)
Marsha's dad is the only person I ever called "Dad" (in my 20's) because I never knew my dad and my stepdad just wasn't. I knew Marsha and her relationship w/her Dad, and I can say it was even more special and precious that words can adequately describe. Soliel is truly blessed to have Marsha and Jack parenting her. Her memories will probably on this site some day. She will be nurtured and cared for like no other. Love, Sher
No actually it is a pic of my husband and our grandaughter. I have no pics online of my Father and me. I just used the pic to show the Father/Daughter love. :}
My eyes are not what they used to be, but I swore that photo was your husband. So that is you as a sweet child?
I know exactly what you mean Marsha.
this is a really nice poem,i always look forward to reading all of them
Beautiful. The picture makes me think of myself and my dad . . . many years ago!
