For my son on his wedding day
To My Son, On Your Wedding Day
From the moment I first held you tight,
I knew you’d fill the world with light;
Through scraped-up knees and growing years,
We’ve shared laughter, defied fears.
Now here you stand, both proud and tall,
With love beside you, you’ve found it all;
A partner true, with heart so kind,
A bond so very deep, your souls aligned.
I’ve watched you grow, I’ve watched you strive,
And now you start a brand new life;
Though time has flown, one truth will stay,
My love for you, will never fade away.
Build your days on trust and grace,
Fill your home with warm embrace;
May laughter echo through your walls,
And joy be yours when evening falls.
So go, my son, walk hand in hand,
Together, strong, as love has planned;
And know, through every joy and test,
You’ve made your parents’ heart feel blessed.
