Look at Me Daddy
by Michelle Roufley

Straw colored hair blowing straight back in the wind,
Airborne on thundering hooves,
Her heart surging wildly
Refusing to calm down.
"Look at me Daddy."

The virtuoso of the show,
A bloomed peony in tights and tutu.
An enduring ovation just for her.
Her swollen chest erupting with happiness.
"Look at me Daddy."

Primped and pampered, taking delight in detail.
Making her beauty glisten.
The Monarch of the Prom.
Enchanting in her royalty.
"Look at me Daddy."

Bedecked in white, to embark on a new life.
Golden curls on the verge of her veiled face.
Floating on his arm down the aisle.
He kisses her adieu on a rouged cheek.
"Look at me Daddy."

A precious babe in her arms.
Love in her eyes.
Cherishing the moments,
Reveling in happiness.
"Look at me Daddy"

A dream in a young girl's head.
A Cinderella never coming up from the ashes.
Broken courage, lost hope.
He was only a voice on the end of the phone,
never seeing, she'd never say
"Look at me Daddy"
