Unconditional Love
Original Pen name – Rebecca Ellen Hickson

She sat, arms stretched out to her daddy
crying out for love,
with no restriction, no restraint at all:

No walls to divide them,
complete unconditional love she gestured:

I love you!

He picked her up, hands soft and gentle.
He held her like a delicate flower,
you are my child.

The baby responded with smiles:
a coo, of unknown words,
but in his heart he knew.

Years have passed by.
She said, reminiscing
with love and gratitude within her heart

He loved me!
Unconditionally! He loved me!

It was like having a constant friend.
Even still he dwells within my heart.
There he will reside until we meet again.
