A Blessing To My Parents

Hold me in your gentle arms Sing me a lullaby Make me feel like it's Ok, to reach up to the sky Encourage me to do my best Though awkward as I seem Perhaps the vision that you have, will also be my dream Give me the freedom to decide And test what I've been taught And you'll see the time you've spent, hasn't been for naught Let me go, in wedlock To see the man you've made And I will give you children, to love in your old age

I don't know, cute can be pretty darn good. I have known some cute women that I preferred over Beautiful.
