To My Lovely Nephew

Pretty little face
Pretty little body
Draped in your white linen
You remind me of an angel
Pure face
Pure soul
Pure heart
I want to drink in your
Pure and limpid spring water
 So as to purify my soul
You mean so much to us
You have been the first to come
And you have brighten up our house and our heart
You are the sun
You are the beauty
You are the joy 
You are the peace
You are the innocence
We all love you Papa
