It may seem a trifle partisan,

To say she makes me proud,

But I really don’t know  or think that I can

Not shout these words out loud.

She’s diligent and she’s hard-working, 

She’s an academic star,

She cares for all her kith and kin,

At sport, she will go far.

She’s beautiful, both outside and in,

Brings both joy and happiness,

The name of this true paragon?

My daughter, Isla Ness.
