For My Daughter (and the World)

This is for you, my daughter dear,
A spark of hope, so bright, so clear
To show the world we all can share
A kinder heart, a lighter air.

May words inspire, may art unite,
May laughter chase away the night.
This world is ours to love, enjoy
Each girl, each dreamer, every boy.

So let us build with gentle hands
A bridge of light across all lands.
This gift I give my love unfurled
For you, my child, and for the world.
