When I saw your eyes for the first time <br />look at me in the way you did, was <br />an emotion I shall always remember <br /> <br />We had shared so much, you taught <br />me to fish, you took me hunting, you <br />taught me all the wonders of the world <br /> <br />Waiting everyday for you to come home <br />was my favorite time of my day as your <br />big hands, and big heart would make <br />me feel so very special in your life <br /> <br />The night you looked at me, and saw <br />that your little girl, isnt a tom boy <br />anymore, she turned 16 today and <br />is dressed for her special party and <br />this time someone else entered the <br />world that for the first time you felt <br />you must somehow share <br /> <br />Sharing must have been hard I know <br />that now, as a parent, I understand <br />how you felt that cold February night <br /> <br />If I could reverse the time for one moment <br />I would, only this time when I walked out the <br />door, I would have walked over to you and <br />kiss your cheek, and tell you, you will always <br />be the number one man in my life........<br /><br />Bonnie Collins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/number-one-man-in-my-life/
