Petite in frame, yet you conquer all.
Amidst life’s thorns, you shine so bright,
My daughter, my joy, my guiding light.

With every step, in confidence stride.
Keep blossoming, in sun and rain,
My love for you, will never wane.

A mother’s love is like a heartbeat; always there, even if not always heard. This poem seeks to express the love, worry, and overwhelming joy that fills a mother as she watches her daughter grow.
In my arms, you first cried,
With each tear, my love’s magnified.
Like a heartbeat, constant and true,
My life, my daughter, begins and ends with you.
Through scraped knees and your first word,
I watched you soar, like a free bird.
From pigtails to prom, how you’ve grown,
My little girl, into a woman you’ve flown.
As candles flicker on your cake today,
Know my love’s with you, come what may.
Endless and pure, my love will be,
Like a heartbeat, felt but free.

You crawled, you walked, then ran so fast,
Into the future, from my past.
Though years pass by, it’s clear to see,
Forever my baby, you will always be.
From crayons to makeup, teddies to phones,
My love for you has only grown.
Each chapter new, but this remains,
My love for you flows in my veins.
Today you’re older, wiser too,
My little girl, how you’ve accrued.
Blow out the candles, make a wish anew,
Forever my baby, my love ever true.

It seems like only yesterday,

A woman who knows right from wrong.
It fills me with pride, what you’ve become,

You’ve become a gem beyond compare.
With each year, new colors blend,
A mix of roles: daughter, sister, friend.
You’ve faced each challenge, played each part,
Turned life’s struggles into loving art.
On your birthday, we stand and gaze,
At the beautiful woman you continue to raise.
Time’s loving art has made it clear,
You’re a masterpiece, year after year.
