For My Niece

It’s the beginning

Of the rest of your days

Time to search for who

Or what

You are to be on this planet

I love you

Time to zealously laugh

And walk purposefully forward

Anyway

Time to cry like it's the end

And walk forward meaningfully

Anyway

Time to race to meet your destiny

And walk forward strongly

Anyway

Time to soar on the trade winds

And walk forward like a boss

Anyway

You will conquer the world

With your radiant smile

With your sunshine eyes

With your contagious laugh

With your soulful spirit and heart of gold

I love you

So read on

Cheer on

Run on

Fight on

Question on

Just go

On

I love you

You are free to conquer the world

And slap obstacles out of your way

I love you

Now

Go

On
