[hometext] => Dedicated to Simon, my son, who has two sons of his own. I love you, Simon!
[bodytext] => Daddy, Daddy -- Oh please look at me Daddy, Oh Daddy -- Oh, can't you see I'm new to this world and a little afraid Just hold me tight and please, don't let your love fade I know you think I only cry, eat and sleep But as you hold me, there's a peace that runs deep Your eyes they just twinkle at me all the while Watch me, Dear Daddy, See, I just learned to smile The crying will subside a bit day by day And just you wait -- someday I WILL learn to play Daddy, Daddy --Oh please look at me Daddy, Oh Daddy -- Oh, can't you see Daddy, I've been waiting! I'm glad you're home at last I rolled over by myself and Mommy just laughed Now I'm growing stronger -- oh yes, it's very true I can sit up and watch for you coming home, too! Is that you, Daddy, coming home, that I hear I can now crawl to you! Do I hear you cheer??? I pulled myself up and actually stood tall I want to let go; I'm afraid I might fall Daddy, Daddy -- Oh please look at me Daddy, Oh Daddy -- Oh, can't you see Oh look--I did it--I actually took a step Geeee, what's next in life? This walking fills me with pep Now I can quickly run around from here to there Big brother is fun and I'm glad he really cares I'm now ready for school, I hear it is fun My big brother says it was when he begun! Gee! Lots of recesses and lots of new friends Reading and writing and learning money spends Daddy, Daddy -- Oh please look at me Daddy, Oh Daddy -- Oh, can't you see I love you, Daddy, for taking good care of me While I sure grew up so fast, you were there, you see I may have argued with you -- but please stick around There's no better buddy or friend that has been found You were there when I cried, and with me when I was sick And when I learned to drive, you taught me to drive a stick You even cautioned me to look for a girl like my Mom Any other type would be like dating a dumb bomb Daddy, Daddy -- Oh please look at me Daddy, Oh Daddy -- Oh, can't you see You've been so much a part of my everyday life Now I think I am ready to make someone my wife I want to be soooo very much like you were to me Now that I've grown to a man -- soon a daddy to be There still is just one more thing I want to thank you for And that is for you showing me how to love my Lord You taught me to pray and depend on Him for all things And now, God, I thank you for my Dad! He's my blessing!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
