My elder daughter's birthday.

The darkness flees...

by royowen

The darkness flees when first light comes
and strikes the morning dew;
for hearts remember not the dark
when life begins anew.

The one thing time cannot remove
is love for one small child;
conception's gift -- a parent's joy
uniquely formed and styled.

She's small and pink, and beautiful
excitement bursts inside,
that God would give this precious gift
proves love for us abides.

Like goodness shines beyond the night
you brought this joy to earth.
this given gem outside of price
a measure of love's girth.

Rebecca, my elder daughter's birthday falls on the 25th of July. She is a true blessing. A model child,(most of the time) an exemplary friend and daughter, she's my other daughter's best friend and very close to her mum. She gave her life to Jesus when only five, and has followed in His footsteps ever since. A doting wife and mum, she has presented us with three beautiful grandsons. I honour their birthdays every year. I praise God for them all. R.O.
