For Seamus

Folder: 
Family

For so many years I dreamed of you

Sensed your presence

And you waited

You are more precious to me than riches

More valuable than my very breath

And I would give my life to see you live

You are my inspiration and drive

You are my child, my son

I look into your eyes and see all amazing things

Your smile can drive away the darkest storm

Each day I am amazed at how much you learn

And how wise such a young mind can be

I'm still getting to know you

And I am sure I have yet to realize the impact of your soul on me, and this world

The moment you were born everything stood still for a moment

And I knew then that everything had changed

And that this world was a better place now that you were in it

I pray for your future

Follow your heart

And enrich your mind

Take deep breaths and meditate

Dance when you can

And run with your dreams

Be still and know you are a child of the Goddess

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this poem about my son soon after he was born.

Danielle, I felt just about the same on the day you were born, I Love you so much and I know that you are a fantastic mother to Seamus. Just tonight while you were here I was watching you with him and it brought me such joy.

To be something you never see in others is amazing. I can feel the warmth and love for your son radiate throughout your entire being. The way that you paint with your words is amazing.
I love you.
