A Special Gift
Many years ago today
God smiled down on me
Then handed me a special gift
For all the world to see
It changed my life forever
This treasure from above
And when I first saw it
I knew I was in love
It filled my heart with joy
Down inside my chest
I knew without a doubt
I was truly blessed
I held this special gift
My eyes filled with tears
And to this day I’m still humbled
Despite the passing years
This gift remains priceless
More precious than a pearl
And I will always cherish
My special baby girl
