Poem Commentary

I pretty much cried the whole time I wrote this. Your Little Girl is dedicated to the person I love most in my life...my father. Enjoy. :)

Your Litte Girl

I'm three years old, looking up at you
Reaching to be in your arms
For every time you held me, my love grew
God's gift of a barrier from harms

I'm six years old and we're at the zoo
Your watching me conquer that tree
I was growing so fast, you already knew
Yet, still allowing me to be free

I'm eight years old, and in the 2nd grade play
Your face stands out in the crowd
I want to make you happy in the best possible way
So here's to you daddy, I'll make you proud!

I'm 12 years old and I've figured life out
Stay away, this has become my fight
I love you's and hugs have turned to shouts
Angry tears on my pillow tonight

I'm 15 years old, gleaming in my prom dress
And your eyes pour love back in my world
Daddy I hope you know, I'm only your princess
And I'll always be...your little girl

I love this little tribute. It's great how you write in the present tense, as if they are memories spilling one after another onto the paper. Or screen. And my, don't you have your dad's smile? Seems like a cool dude!

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
