Look out onto the world
It’s your home now
With those glistening eyes
Take in those big clouds
I’d try and give you everything
But my hands are too small
Though they’re big enough to hold you up
And make sure you don’t fall
Look out onto the world darling
I don’t know how
But as I look into your eyes
I just know
You’re my world now

Awwwww, that was amazing! My favorite lines were "I'd try to give you everything, but my hands are too small." Those two really stuck with me. Thank you for the post, this poem was sweet :)
