Thoughts Of A Young Father
By Larry R. Linville
(Written in 1960’s and edited in 2007)
As I watch you play tonight
My emotions pull me apart.
Your actions chill my body
And trills my happy heart.
You make baby sounds
And pretend you are talking
While like a strong lion
My heart you are stalking.
The moment I want you
To sit on my lap
You go at your busy pace
To avoid your short nap.
And when I am busy
Here in my chair
I look up so slowly
To your eyes begging there.
As long as I live
I’ll remember one theme
To always enjoy
Each heart-catching scene.
