Daddy's Little Girl

she was Daddy’s little Girl

i once held her

in my arms

but she does not remember that

for she is grown now

making waves in her own Seas now

as she sees it

she was Daddy’s little girl

my world

and i cherished

her every breath

blink of the eye

and smile

oh those smiles

filled with a drooling wonder

that i am forbidden to speak about

for this now embarrasses her

her eyes had a twinkle

like the Stars of Orion

such a sparkling

that captured any and all

who happened to look her way

like i did

every day

all day

it was heaven

she was Daddy’s little Girl

my Angel

she may have had wings

but i did not see them

but i think she gave them to me

for my Soul was a flight

in her presence

and her presence in my thoughts

as they are now

she was Daddy’s little Girl
