Many thanks to a special person for helping me with the meter in my poem

Contest:In the name of love
Sponsor: Shadow Hamilton

Those sapphire eyes and kissable cute cheeks - I held you and I knew I was in love. The moment I'd been dreaming of for weeks was perfect, and it came from God above! Home from the hospital, how our life changed! Though challenging at first, it was worthwhile to have our sleeping patterns rearranged. What precious memory was your first smile! And now you've grown. We're many miles apart. How wonderful you are, my darling boy! Do not forget you're always in my heart. My precious son, you are my pride and joy. The loving feelings that I have for you will stay with me, dear son, my whole life through. 10~30~15

He seldom reads my poems especially haiku which he hates - I think he would get a shock as to how many poems have been inspired by him:-)hugs Jan xx

That love we have as parents is unstoppable. I remember wondering before I had children, whether men could love their child as much as a mother does. Yes we can. Beautiful poem Jan.
