In The Blink Of An Eye
I hold you near, a marvelous site
Your rosy cheeks, small blue eyes bright
A seductive smile, full of light
Stealing my heart from the very first sight.
Pudgy fingers are tapering out
Legs and body now getting about
Excitement soars, as we think about
Scouts and schools, I’m grown you shout.
The arguments, the boys, the clothes
The quick hugs, the joy, the woes
Things you feel you cant expose
Your growing fast my pretty rose.
You found the one, your own true love
He’s all you ever talk or think of
Sent to you by Her above.
Your childhood you now walk out of.
And now I hold a bright pink rose
New life born under my nose
With all her fingers and all her toes.
I’m getting old I now suppose.
All in the blink of an eye.
