What Do I see?

What do I see, when I see you?
Beautiful eyes, two pools of blue.
From behind, I see wavy swirls.
Of tumbling bouncing little curls.
Such a pretty face, alight with glee.
As beautiful as a child could be.
Born to smile...that gorgeous grin.
A million hearts to melt and win!
Yes, I'm your Grandad, that is true.
But that is what I see, when I see you!
