THAT LI’L DOLL










The first time I saw her with a twinkle
In her li’l  eye
I knew she was something I’d live for
Or even die

The first time she closed her little hand
Around my little finger
I knew that the special feeling
Will always linger

The first time I heard a li’l voice
Like sleigh bells ringing
The first time I heard her cry
As if an angel was singing

The first time I touched her,
She felt as soft as velvet
The first time, I carried her, in my arms
That feeling I can never forget

The first time she uttered dad-da
I knew I was a slave at her command
I knew I could beg borrow or steal
To fulfill all her little demands

Then the day came when she took her first step   
All by  her own
I was amazed at how in just one year
That  li’l doll had grown ………….

And now she’s 21
Ready to take the world in her stride
Ready to follow her own dreams
And I wish her all the best,
As my heart swells with love & pride

Happy Birthday  My Li’l Girl !!!
