Peering out of tiny eyes, The
grubby hands that gripped the rail
Wiped the window clean of frost, As
the morning air laid on the latch
A whistle awakened someone there,
Next door to the nursery just down
the hall
A strange new sound you never heard
before, a strange new sound that
makes boys explore
Tread neat so small those littl e
feet, Amid the morning his small
heart beats
So much excitement yesterday, That
must be rewarded must be
displayed
Large hands lift him through the air
Excited eyes contain hi m there
The eyes of those he loves and knows
But what's this extra bed just h ere
His puzzled head tipped to one side,
Amazement swims in those bright
green eyes
Glancing down upon this thing , That
makes strange sounds, str ange sounds
that sing
In those
silent happy seconds, That surround
the sound of this event
A parent smile is made in momen ts,
They have made for you a friend
And all you ever learned f rom them
Until you grew much older
Did not compare with when they said
This is your brand new bro ther
This is your brand new bro ther
This is your brand new bro ther
