Princess in my Heart-3
A father's tribute to his daughter

You are a princess in my heart,

I care for you oh so much.

I love the fondness in your eyes and in your tender touch.

I looked at you when you were born,

and I could not but laugh.

I knew right then, right straight away,

that I would be forever here

to watch you grow and play.

You bring to me a heart of joy,

and memories so great;

a powerful sense of fatherhood,

that no one can debate.

I’ve watched you sleep and dream,

of things, that I can only wonder.

That innocent look upon your face,

it just made my heart grow fonder.

To see you run, and jump, and shout, while calling out my name;

I knew no love that I'd  ever know could ever feel 
the same.

No suffering, nor tragedy, nor deeply searing pain;

could ever overshadow the bond that we retain.

And you are still my princess;

so before you go to sleep,

Remember I am your daddy and I am yours to keep=Forever.
