Princess.

 

  • I will call you princess for that is what you are.
  • A wonderful smiling being that came from another star.
  • Lovely large brown eyes and a perfect little face,
  • Make me feel so good to belong to the human race.
  • Your Mother pushes your perambulator out into the fresh air,
  • You sit and gurgle, smiling without a single care.
  • A blessing you are to my old weary eyes,
  • Every time I see you I get a new surprise.
  • You are as pretty as a picture I once saw in a book.
  • Now when I see your perambulator I always stop to look.
  • You lift my spirits and I am happy to see once more,
  • A sweet little lady that pleases me to the core.
  • I pray that I may live a few more years on earth,
  • Just to see you grow and fill my life with mirth.
  • For nothing is as important to a man like me,
  • To see a childish spirit that is obviously so free.
  • May you grow into an adult that abounds with pleasure,

                For in my old heart you will be my treasure.
