My Baby Boy

The day came when i learned of you.

Tinyer than a grain of salt.

Baerly noticeable to the nacked eye, growing inside.

What joy to know that I would soon be careing for thee.

Oh! How time goes so fast, not careing of the past.

But planning for the future.

Now that you are here with me.

My life is filled with glee.

Oh! What joy to have my baby boy.

Now that you are nestled in my arms, suckling away at the breast.

I wish you in life nothing but the best.
