"Carry You?"

In a daughter's eyes,
       Daddy can do no wrong
Where he takes off his work boots,
       Will always be her home
Her first in shining armor,
       Prince!, kiss from a toad
The boy who'll never harm her, 
        Always help her cross the road 
As she grows, so will their bond
       Ever needs him by her side,
Of her he'll only grow more fond,
       And hold her with more pride
He's what forms her image, 
       Of what a man should be, 
Although it takes a village, 
       He's all she'll ever see.
        -Ashley McRitchie
