Dear Daughter,
You carry the universe in the strength of your thighs
Its beauty in your heart
and the power to birth it in your womb.
You carry the history of Time inside your head.
Your feet were made of the strength of your ancestors;
Of their pains and their struggles,
Of their joys and their triumphs.
Your fingertips carry the miracle of the future you can weave.
Make it yours.
You are Time.
You are Strength.
You are all of creation and all its destruction;
everything that came before you, and everything that comes after you.
Should the world ever try to bring you down, remind it that you are bigger than it is.
Remind it that you are the universe.

Very good!
However, the background being red sort of...adds too much contrast. Toning down the brightness on it would've helped a bit!

this poem really makes me think about everything that defines existence. It's one of those few moments when I am proud to be human, because I understand that not only the present I form is what I always should have in mind, but also this heritage I have been given by thousand hands before me, and thousand feet that have been walking a thousand hours, a thousand children that had to be conceived and a thousand mouths that had to be fed, until it began to be my turn, now

AWWWW YES FEMALES ARE THE FUTURE. THEY MAKE UP THE WORLD AND GIVE LIFE TO THE WORLD!
Now, they need to stop getting dead drunk and doing funky junk to their babies and dying from drug overdose.Β

She had the body like the most beautiful of flower gardens.
A mind as deep as a whole universe.
Eyes that sparkled bright like the stars in the night sky.
Her voice like a soft fingertip tracing your spine.
Alas, t'is but dreams of wonder and adventure that tore me away from her...
