My fathers Eyes
Dedicated to my father 2008
Today I saw you for the first time, with my eyes wide open as you gazed down at mine.
I knew you were my dad, that's when you first started loving me.
While smiling down at me, a teardrop came rolling free, down your cheek from your glazed eyes then it dropped on me!
Then you bent down and got close and whispered my name in my ear for only me to hear.
Today I met you for the first time the moment I was born into this great big world. but I knew I was goanna be fine.
because you are my daddy and I'm your little girl.
