Help! I am a Parent
I stand in awe, watching your birth...
this...thing...that fits in the palm of my hand
the most beautiful thing on Earth.
I contemplate what life will be like...now
that I am a father...it still sounds strange
but, I will always love you and I make this vow.
I believe we were destined to be here, together
I will protect you from all harm and evil
teach you right from wrong, and to never fear.
I marvel at your tiny fingers and toes
that huge mop of Jet Black hair
what the future holds for you...who knows.
I speculate, being a parent will be difficult at times
yet, others seem to make it look so easy
for you and I...fun...laughter, tears and lovely times..
