The Greatest Discovery

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 little 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 him there
 The eyes of those he loves and knows
 But what's this extra bed just here
 His puzzled head tipped to one side
 Amazement swims in those bright green eyes
 Glancing down upon this thing
 That make strange sounds, strange sounds that sing
 In those silent happy seconds
 That surround the sound of this event
 A parent smile is made in moments
 They have made for you a friend
 And all you ever learned from them
 Until you grew much older
 Did not compare with when they said
 This is your brand new brother
 This is your brand new brother
 This is your brand new brother
