Grandad’s poem for Lillie on her christening day

 

Spurs game rescheduled in an unkind way 

It's important and we’d love to watch them play 

 

Need to put it into perspective though and say 

We can catch the highlights because this is Lillie’s day 

 

She’s a bundle of joy, a gift from heaven 

Early years needing attention twenty four seven

 

Imposing instant demands on Dad and Mum 

Cries of feed me now and change my bum 

 

Two big brothers, a bond you can see clearly 

Watch them all together, they love her dearly 

 

A pleasant day with family and friends 

But this isn’t where the gift of Lillie ends 

 

We can look forward to the coming years 

There’ll be times of smiles and some tears 

 

Nobody knows how the future will unfold 

But our precious Lillie will be ours to hold
