Daddy Is Always Watching

Holding my dear child,
Close to my chest,
We’re holding strong to her hand,
As she takes her first steps.
Her first day of Kindergarten,
Such a day for her.
Though papa cried,
He’ll be all right.
My baby’s growing up,
Daddy’s watching HER.
Oh baby girl!
Its 2:30 in the morning,
She just got home,
Her hair is pink,
Don’t know where she’ll roam!
Teaching her to drive,
Trying to stay calm.
My baby’s growing up,
Daddy’s watching HER.
Oh baby girl!
She just graduated,
Threw up her hat.
She’s moving on,
To find a home to own.
Our hearts are aching, as she kisses us good-bye,
Our bird just left the nest and is learning to fly.
My baby’s growing up,
Daddy’s watching HER.
Oh baby girl!
Walking down the aisle holding hand in hand,
Her dress gleaming walks to her man.
Two boys and a baby girl,
Her house getting full.
Taking in a new job,
Her husbands leaving town.
My baby’s growing up,
Daddy’s watching HER.
Oh baby girl!
Hoped to hold her once more,
Before I shut my eyes.
Life is a highway don’t know where it ends,
The golden arches are opening again.
Its time for me to go, to rest away,
It’s okay!
My baby’s growing up,
Daddy’s still watching HER.
Oh baby girl!
Keep your head up high,
Bloom up with your eyes open.
Live your life happily,
Before it fades away!
Take new roads,
Live up to all your dreams,
My baby’s growing up,
Daddy’s still watching HER.
Oh baby girl!

The Wind

I was inside the bushes,
I was inside the trees.
I blew beside the houses,
I swayed in the alleys.
My body was following,
Though no one seems to see!
I am everywhere you strive to be,
I come in cool and go out hot,
I am each breath and cool breeze,
Inside the body or a pot.
Night and Day you live with me,
But never seem to see.
Tree leaves twisting,
Prairies curling.
Hot steam,
Tornadoes whirling.
I shake and move what you can see,
But only look at them not me!
Don’t waste my breaths,
Don’t waste the air.
I am inside you,
I am everywhere!
So take the time to see my actions,
Prove to me you really care!

Mother Nature

Lightning strikes throughout her hair,

She decorated the Earth that we share.

Her emotions flood all over town,

Disasters occur if she doesn’t calm down.

When her tears fall, we feel the rain.

Our souls are taken through all of her pain.

Tornadoes, lightning, mud slides and hail,

Powerful storms formed by each powerful wail.

When she’s happy and calm,

The sun brightly shines from her left palm.

Rainbows and stars line her chest,

Then birds sing their songs as they fly from the nest!

When she is calm and at rest,

Her nature land is at its best.

We feel settle and happy too,

To be able to share her miraculous view!
