My Son picked you up when you were one, soft and white .
You shook and shivered - your red eyes wide. I think you wanted a place to hide.
So I held you close and very tight. You stayed very near throughout the night.
As the days went by you became the King - Head of the household and everything.
You brought such joy and so much pleasure. The love you gave one cannot measure.
I'll think of you often - each night - each dawn
For in my heart you'll never be gone.
