My Little Girl

At first amazed consumed with pride,I have a little girl Could It be just my joy that speaks or can I be the luckiest man in the world Each day I watched you come to life ears piqued by every sound I would sit for hours with bursting smile just to watch you crawl around As the years ensued and you grew before me my great joy was tinged with worry Such happiness of which dreams are made should not pass in such a hurry Through the years our times were so precious each little event etched in my mind Each mornings smile you shown upon me a sweet and treasured find And now my little girl stands before me a woman tall and proud Yet still if you stood away a million miles i could touch you in a crowd The reason I can say this is because even when where apart Those sweet memories that we share we carry deep within our hearts
