To My Little Son..

No amount of gold could ever compare, to the gift of love that my son shares.
I've been blind and I couldn't see that all the love I've wanted is right here in front of me.
He gives reason to get through another day.
Maybe it's how he loves me in his special little way.

 I never appreciated my life until I gave you yours.
So, it could be said that you gave me life.
Allowing me no longer to live carelessly.
Stopping me from living my life daily.
You gave me a reason to want a future.
When dying was all I could see,
I found myself living in your eyes.
Looking at your face,
I know why I'm alive.
Because in you is where my life lies.

Son, I wish I could
Shower you with the Greatest
Rainbows and Waterfalls
Fairytales and Clydesdales
Oceans and magic Potions.
Son, I wish I could
Make your dreams come true
Wealth and Health
Happiness and Success
Famous and Veracious.

I wish for you today and every day there after,
I wish for you the joys of life to come,
I wish for you that the life you lead may be praised by God for now and always,
I wish for you the knowledge to face life as it comes,
I wish for you hope and wisdom that I have instilled in you to know the difference between right and wrong,
I wish for you all the dreams and hope that you could ever imagine,
I wish for you love for everlasting life.

And every time I look at him it makes me want to cry
But they're not tears of sorrow; they're tears of pride and joy....
To know that all the love in heaven is wrapped around my little boy.
