For the little guy who came into our lives five years ago today, here’s a tiny little poem. Love you and happy birthday, buddy.
Twinkle, twinkle, little Dar,
How I wonder what you are.
On and through our world you fly,
Barely saying ‘hi’ and ‘bye.’
Happy Birthday little Dar
How I wonder how you are
I can see how hard you try
Yet you watch the world go by
‘A, B, C, D, E, F, G’
This, your brother sings to me
‘Baa baa black sheep’ he can do
While we wonder if you’ll, too
Twinkle, twinkle, little Dar
Five years old, today you are.
On and through our world you fly,
Barely saying ‘hi’ and ‘bye.’
I’d heard Mozart wrote this song
When his hair was five years long
Thank God for the Web today
This song’s truth is clicks away
French-penned back when M was five,
M helped at age twenty-five
Twinkle, twinkle, little Dar
20 years to find your star
Five years old feels like a bar
Got to bring you up to par
I know all the work is hard
I know you’ve come very far
Twinkle, twinkle, our rock star
Soon you won’t be “little Dar”
Half a decade, you’re a boy
So to speak, please don’t be coy
Twinkle, twinkle, little Dar
Do I love you how you are?
Screaming, crying like a banshee
Making Mom and me so antsy
Twinkle, twinkle, little Dar
Such a gentle soul you are
Stimming, toys, and watching trees
Happy just to feel the breeze
Twinkle, twinkle, little Dar
Sweetness, smiles and love, you are
What’s the thought behind your eyes?
Lucy’s diamonds in the skies?
Twinkle, twinkle, little Dar
I DO love you how you are
Happy birthday little guy
Let’s try more than ‘hi’ and ‘bye.’
