A Father's Love For, Son's Great Gift

A Father's Love For, Son's Great Gift 


The wonder of childhood still resides in this father's heart
  watching my beautiful son while praying we never grow apart

His tendency to laugh gloriously as he wins any video game
  his great love as he calls out so gayly my simple name

A great celebration of the gifts of life he now teaches me
  sits deep in this heart and forever, forever it will be

A love precious time surely will bless abundantly as it grows
  joys and tribulations as he keeps mother and I on our tippy toes

Joyously still hear the patter of his early morning racing feet
  as to our bedroom he runs asking for those special weekend treats

Life will yield ever more of these glorious and loving times
  as I record each adoringly in heartfelt and loving little rhymes

Inspired tonight as my son begged to stay up longer to sit in my lap!
Such a charmer he slays me into submission..
