A Look at the Future


A look of utter naivety escapes your eyes,
You had no idea what life held for you then,
Maybe that explains your careless, teenage posture.
Another image of a person I know nothing about.
I hardly recognize the girl with a flower in her long dark hair.
She's smiling so freely;
A smile I've never seen before.
The beauty resonating through the photograph,
Stays with me at all times.
And then I wonder,
"Is this what my daughter will see?"
