Two Kisses

You balled up your fists up to me,
Lit by the early morn,
I gave you two kisses on the cheek,
On the day that you were born.
You fell from your bicycle,
The tears bright upon your face,
I gave you two kisses on the cheek,
And away you brightly raced.
I stand beside your loaded car,
Your hand loosely in mine,
You gave me two kisses on the cheek,
In the world you will be fine.
I watch as you drive away,
Proud as a mother hen,
I trap the kisses on my cheek,
And can't wait to have some again.

Our three year old said to me whilst on my knee, "Daddy, you look a bit cranky. I'll give you two kisses, then you'll be happy."
