"I Miss Those Days" Poem

I miss those days when you sang me a lullaby to lure me to sleep

I miss those days when you carried me around the house

I miss those days when you couldn’t sleep because of me

I miss those days when I came to you for help

I miss those days when you tickled my tummy

I miss those days when you held my small hand in yours

I miss those days when you bent down and assured me that everything would be okay

I miss those days when I hugged you good-bye

I miss those days when you watched me go off to school

But now, the years pass by

I sometimes sing myself to sleep

I try to solve my own problems

I know everything will be okay

I still hug you good-bye

But still know that I will always be there

Even when I’m gone

Even when I grow my own wings and fly away

Know that I will be your little girl forever
