As She Grows

I try to imagine how she will be like,  

Would she ask for something on her knees? 

I wonder if we will somehow be alike, 

Is she going to use key words like thank you, sorry and please. 

As She Grows

When I grew up I respected mum and dad so as a boy I became manlike, 

I was open minded as if I've travelled overseas, 

I hope that my baby girl as she grows up will do the same and be ladylike,

I hope that she will posses specific expertise. 

As She Grows 

I'll teach her what I know like how to ride a bike, 

I'll take her to the sea to enjoy sea breeze, 

I see myself in her, I hope she sees herself in me as we look alike, 

I'll teach her how to work hard and still approach life with ease. 

As She Grows 

I'll teach her how to dance and sing and how to perform holding a mic, 

I'll pay for all her expenses and her school fees, 

I'll teach her how to be a difference in this world by using her psych,

I'll tell her that respect for herself and others, hard work and education hold success' keys.
