My beautiful daughter

I was going through some old papers today, and came across a poem Lindsey wrote. I think it was from middle school, so around 10 years ago but it is so beautiful, and so reflects her, I wanted to post it and share. She is such a wonderful human being. I am very proud.

I Am…

I am a flower child who loves dolphins.
I wonder why there is so much hate in the world.
I hear a pounding sound when all is quiet.
I see a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
I want a chance to swim with dolphins.
I am a flower child who loves dolphins.
I pretend to be a famous dancer on a giant stage.
I feel tempted by peer pressure.
I touch the air, the stars, the moon, and the peace that is deep down in everyone’s soul.
I worry about the ozone layer.
I cry for my grandma Rita in heaven.
I am a flower child who loves dolphins.
I understand life is not easy.
I say love rules over evil always.
I dream of the day when homeless people are off the streets.
I hope to make a difference.
I am a flower child who loves dolphins.
- Lindsey Molineaux


This is us a couple of years ago.
