Son

Published by Family Friend Poems July 2006 with permission of the Author.

As I bear you from my womb, all the love
And joy filled the room.
As I held you, my arms formed a cocoon.
As I watched you sleeping peacefully at
Night.

Oh, what mental pictures forever
In my sight and asked God forever be
His light.

As the years go by, I can hardly
Remember when you were that little guy.
With all your smiles and all those whys
Curiosity and questions will never end
Just like the sky.

Now it's time I must realize for you to
Run and play, oh I promise not to be in
Your way, but moms feel protective, and
"Be careful" they always say.

For all your boyish adventures and
Lessons learned, I will grow and so
Will you, but the memories I have of
You and you of me will seem just new
Before you know it you'll have a little
One that says goo-goo
