Fatherhood

Fatherhood is a joy brought by the marvel of new things It comes in a child's gaze that seems to sing Of the joy within his father's heart Felt by the pride as he makes a part For a son in his life-- A love upon which he would be called to fight For the free love he feels now within his life. There is nothing quite as sweet As you two in this by chance meeting What am I to do-- With scenes of family such as this? Perhaps I'll just pull up a chair And watch you dream sweet dreams With a kind and gentle stare Without you even knowing that I am there.
