Daddy, would you sing to me My daughter asked as I tucked her in You used to sing so nice and now you don't Why did you stop Is it because you don't like to sing Maybe you don't like those songs I really don't blame you I don't like the Circle being Broken But the Inch Worm always made me smile And don't you like that song about KISS anymore And who is Bethwhy did they sing about her Daddy, even if you don't like to sing Could you do it once more just for me I promise I won't ask again Autumn, my one true love of life Your Daddy will sing for you always Many times at night when you are sleeping I sit on your bed And I sing to you all the songs You love so well and remember No close your eyes, Dear one And Daddy will sing for you again For now and until you sleep Two and two are four.... Four and four are eight... Imagine all the People living life in peace... |

Lovely poem--wonderful Daddy! Memories of bedtimes when I sang my songs and played my guitar for my daughters as they were growing up. Very, very special memories. Thank you for bringing them back to me. Warm hugs, EA |

Once again, I thank you all for the kind words. Singing for my daughter is indeed a memory I shall cherish if I never sing again. Raph- You are completely right. Beth by KISS is one of the few KISS songs I'll listen to any more. Imagine all the People living life in peace... |

Brad, I love these poems you are writing about your children. They are so blessed to have a loving Daddy like you who will take time with them. I sang to my daughter when she was growing up. Then, when she got older, we sang together in a gospel group. This brought back some really good memories. Hugs, Ethel . (Btw, I like more of the songs KISS sang than any other rock group.....but my favorite music is soft rock. I like Rod Stewart, Phil Collins, Celine Dion, Enya...and on and on) |
