When I replaced my daughters locket that she had lost which was the original long poem I also got one for my granddaughter.

Being a father of three daughters, this poem radiates to my core!
I find it to be a wonderful piece.

[Willard Wells]

Thank you sir. Appreciate the visit and the solitude with me and my words.

Those words are an eternal mantra from parent to child hoping they stick and build a rock solid foundation of love to spring forth and grow from. I know I used them with my own and still do. Lovely picture of love from Dad to daughter.

Thank you JC. I started writing a long piece about what led up to a replacement locket for one given years ago. After a few verses that I pushed a side, I decided to go with the positive and leave out the pain. We bring enough of that here as it is. Thanks for reading and commenting.

~The love between a proud father and his daughter is insoluble. A great senyru Willard.~
