'Congrats you are a father' Five words which changed my life forever.
As I picked up the fluffy angel She gave me a pink smile My heart did a samba As if I had run many a mile.
When she first said "Papa" Rainbows filled up my sky When she toddled into my arms I felt I could fly.
The first day at school The nick that made her cry Moments which made me smile Memories which make me sigh.
Cinderella she was And also the Sleeping Beauty Sitting anxiously in the first row I was doing more than my duty.
As she sang and performed The world was her stage And she was my princess On every stage, at every age.
A young lady now - She is ready to fly the nest To move higher and higher Till she touches the crest.
She'll leave behind an aching soul A heart that is forlorn No one can fill the void Alas, once she is gone.
Years will pass, the ache will not I'll keep waiting for her My little girl, little no more I'll wonder if she's gone forever.
Then one day I'll hear Words only five That will make me Yell, yodel, sing and jive.
'Congrats, you are a grandfather' These words will echo in my mind My princess has donned a new avatar And a better one I'll never find.
A soft and fluffy bundle of joy Will once again permeate my being And my life once more will be Really and truly worth living.
