Precious Little Hearts by Ben Laney

Angel's in the bedroom
Packing a bag with clothes
She wants to go with Dad
Singing down the road
Little Sis is fast asleep
Bottle clenched in her hand
The rythym of her breathing
Is music to this man

They know just what to say
To make me jump through hoops
They may drive me crazy
Before this day is through
And they will dance and laugh
How did they get so smart?
They have got my number
These precious little hearts

Precious little hearts
They know just how to
Take their Dad apart
Do they know they are
They are God's
Greatest works of art
These precious little hearts
Sweet, sweet
Precious little hearts

Very Expressive, and Nice. :)
Ben, that poem touches me very much. It reminds me of my relationship with my father, and the past that led me here today. And I bet my father would agree with me, on saying that you did very nicely. Good job!! :)
