Princess.
- I will call you princess for that is what you are.
- A wonderful smiling being that came from another star.
- Lovely large brown eyes and a perfect little face,
- Make me feel so good to belong to the human race.
- Your Mother pushes your perambulator out into the fresh air,
- You sit and gurgle, smiling without a single care.
- A blessing you are to my old weary eyes,
- Every time I see you I get a new surprise.
- You are as pretty as a picture I once saw in a book.
- Now when I see your perambulator I always stop to look.
- You lift my spirits and I am happy to see once more,
- A sweet little lady that pleases me to the core.
- I pray that I may live a few more years on earth,
- Just to see you grow and fill my life with mirth.
- For nothing is as important to a man like me,
- To see a childish spirit that is obviously so free.
- May you grow into an adult that abounds with pleasure,
For in my old heart you will be my treasure.
