She of my fondest desires
Hearth of my warmest dreams
Angel of mine, Princess Adia
Nightly I imagined her face and;
Engraved her into my soul
Even before I could touch her,
Let alone see her…
Adia my dear newborn daughter
Days, weeks and months I count…
I’ll count till the day I’ll hear you utter
A word to my anxious ears, maybe say, “Papa”
Am waiting patiently
Curious to always see you again
How you always fill me with glamour and satisfaction
I cannot describe; something is always different
Every time we meet, I notice a new thing in you
Naïve I may be as a first time parent but…
God’s abundant blessings I always see in you.
