Line Gauthier Poet Lyric

Look At You

Look at you looking at me
My only son’s one son
A very cute mini version of me
A new generation to carry on my name
Your whole life ahead of you

Look at you looking at me
Eyes glowing with possibilities
Your mind a clean blank slate
Our future in your generation’s hands
And here you are with your whole hand 
Wrapped around my baby finger

Look at you looking at me
The perfect smile of innocence
Radiant and in real time
Don’t know who is more in awe
The grandpa or the child
