&lsquo;Maybe Richard will find another way. Just tell him, Alice. Tell him that his own Confessor never stopped loving him. And that if he can&rsquo;t undo the magic, if he can&rsquo;t return to her then, she&rsquo;ll be waiting for him, in the Underworld. Forever.&rsquo;<br /> -Mother Confessor Kahlan Amnell,<br /> Legend of the Seeker


Daddy’s little baby,
painting his life with color.
He knew how much she’d miss him,
after he was gone.

His little Melita.
Baby Melita, girl.
She gave him a voice when his was missing.
This is what she gave him:

Daddy’s little angel,
giving a world to those who have none.
Trading her toys and sorrows,
giving a gift of love and joy.

This is how she will live.
This is who she is:

Little Melita.
His baby Melita, girl.
His little child gave him love!
She gave him her joy:

Daddy’s little darling,
giving hope and peace to him.
Laughing and caring for
everyone she’ll touch.

His little Melita.
Sweet little Melita, child.
Painting his life with colors and fog.
This is what she gave to him:

His little Melita.
Sweet little Melita, child.
Painting his life with colors and fog.
This is what she gave to him:

Love.

This is a song sung by a character in one of my books. He writes it after his daughter's birth.
