The Beauty of Fatherhood

The bright summers day,

Birds singing,

High clouds in the blue sky,

Meadow flowers bobbing in the light breeze.

A trout rises in the crystal clear water

Of the gentle chalk stream.

All of this, this breath-taking beauty,

Is a shadow, a pale insignificance.

Not worthy of comparison,

With my little girl's smile!
