Poem
I have never believed I would be blind To eternal sunshine that's mind The day you were born was the beginning My heart's petals bloomed most compelling Tears of joy I shed while I saw you smile In my arms I knew the pain was worthwhile Lullabies sung and hummed to bring comfort sleep As you lay in your crib without a peep Challenges as you grew with bumps and bruises with footfalls Sticky fingers, scattered toys, fancy artwork on the walls Meaningful memories as I look into your eyes Of the mischief you use to get into, but I was wise I'll always be here whenever you need me Stand by you, whoever you decide to be Eternal sunshine that was mind is still my total joy Don't ever forget you will always be my little boy I miss those days we took the time to enjoy Reflecting in the year's past of your favorite toy Was also your security blanket that you always kept near A mere little stuff rabbit you loved so much dear If it disappeared, it would always returned unstained From the washing to the drier because it had been so stained As you grew older the little artist and Shakespeare you became Pictures, flowers, poems I would find I'd date and write your name There were times fear overtook your little mind sweetheart You would walk in your sleep until the pain would go away from your heart You'd whisper in my ear to tell me you loved me You always wanted to be like your daddy, inventive You've become a man, "Mama I love you" you still tell me You've become the carbon copy of your dad to a tee We are so proud you took the road of responsibility You can pursue a world of endless possibility You are still my little artist and Shakespeare full of joy Don't ever forget you will always be my little boy 5/10/2018 Their Image Forever Embedded Within My Mind This is dedicated to my three wonderful sons that I cradled in my arms and wish I still was
