A poem for dad.
I heard you say "I love you", when I was in mum's tum,
9 months passed before I heard you help her count to one.
"One, two, three, four... breathe", I heard you say,
You stayed by mummy's side, until I met you the next day.
I miss when we're not together, but I know you have to work,
you strive so hard to give us all the lovely perks.
I will open up your heart, to something very new,
I know you're nervous, I know you're scared but you have mum right here with you.
You help give me the gift of life, and life gave me the gift of you.
