A mother-daughter relationship must be delicately balanced and painstakingly cared for.
I have 4 daughters and this poem summed up to what they mean to me.
A daughter to a mother is like a diamond in the rough.
A mother to a daughter sometimes makes life rough.
She'll always be your little girl, no matter what path she takes.
You'll often want to help her in decisions that she makes,ย
But you sit back silently, you have to let her grow
Then suddenly she's a woman and she wants you to let go.
You hold on very gently so she can't feel your grip,
But in your heart you'll be there just in case she slips.
She wants to share her feelings, but you won't understand,
When she comes home and tells you that she has found her man.
That diamond in the rough I will always call her mine,
But even I can clearly see He makes my diamond shine!

Mother's Message Of Love To Daughter

I have 4 daughters and this poem summed up to what they mean to me.
I decided to read this poem at our daughters wedding on May 19th 2012 as part of my mother of the bride speech. Despite practicing it time and time again at home and in front of friends, I never got past line 4 without becoming emotional. The wedding day loomed and I thought I was never going to be able to recite this and stay composed as best I could.....but....I did and my goodness me were there some tears in the room after and not from me! I had cried myself out! The comments I got after the speeches were complete were heart warming and the thing that got mentioned the most was this poem. I challenge any mother who loves their daughter to try and stand up and say this out loud and not become emotional even in their own home let alone a wedding! It was a big hit. Thank you.

The mother of seven-year-old Katie Rough screamed and tried to cradle her daughter's blood-stained head when she found her smothered and slashed on the playing field where she was killed by a teenager.
Alison Rough was 'frantic' when she discovered the scene at The Square, a sports and recreation field behind Alness Drive in York, shortly after Katie was fatally attacked.
Her daughter's killer, who was 15 at the time, had smothered her with a glove-covered hand before slashing her neck and torso with a Stanley knife.
Graham Reeds QC, prosecuting, told Leeds Crown Court that residents of the nearby cul-de-sac were first to tend to the injured girl after being told she was there by the teenager, who was found 'distressed, covered in mud' and with a 'blood-stained right hand'.
Peter Mills found Katie around 15 to 20 yards beyond the entrance to the field, lying on her back, with her hands to the side and above her head and with her face covered in blood.

He attempted to find a pulse or signs of breathing but Katie was 'lifeless'.
Mr and Mrs Rough arrived as a police officer discovered a 'substantial' 6cm knife wound to the young girl's neck.
Mr Reeds said: 'Upon seeing the blood in Katie's hair and the throat injury, Alison started to scream.
'She then tried to cradle Katie's head but the police officer tried to lead them both away so they did not have to witness any more.
'They were both led away in considerable distress. Alison was saying 'she's killed my daughter'.'
Mrs Rough later told the BBC: 'I cradled her. I saw her injuries, I knew she was gone.'

Residents of Alness Drive told at the time how they saw Mrs Rough crying on her knees in the street.
One woman said: 'The mother was on her knees in the middle of the road, crying and saying things.'
Rob McCartney added: 'The mother came running up the street, shouting for help and saying 'Get an ambulance'.'
Paramedics who attended found another wound to Katie's torso - which ran for around 8in (20cm) from her sternum to her stomach and had cut through skin, fat and muscle, with shorter cuts to each side.
Her clothing had been pulled up to inflict the wound, which was made with a red Stanley knife the teenager had taken from her grandmother's kitchen and handed to police when she was detained near the scene.
Blood staining on Katie's green coat with a fur-trimmed hood, school trousers and school shirt all suggested she was lying on her back when she was cut with the knife.
Tests later found that Katie had been smothered and the knife wounds inflicted after her death.
Mr Reeds said the teenager had held her gloved hand over the young girl's face in order to smother her. Katie was pronounced dead at hospital that evening.
Mrs Rough told the BBC: 'We went in to see her and the rest is a blur. The next few days were an absolute blur.
'It was just the darkest. I never knew that I could feel something so terrible. There's no words for how we felt. It was just absolute devastation.'
