the love of a child

as I watch my baby grow
to her I just hope to show
how to learn and discover
love and kindness for another


it is the sweetest joy
you may ever feel
to hold your little angel
it almost seems unreal

so tiny and soft as a feather
a baby is innocent, perfect as ever
but you realize you and her
won't always be together

hold onto time that you have
watch her smile and make her laugh
as this life goes by so fast
before you know it will all be past

as she takes her first steps
it makes me kind of sad,
but it helps me realize
life is really not so bad.


how I love my little girl
and I want to tell the world
I am so proud now that I know
The amazing love from a child of my own
