Ann Gilmour Poet Free verse

Happy Birthday Son

  
Today 
Son
 is your birthday
You would be fifty two
But you were called
 But you were taken
Two years ago
It was your time
~~~
Our hearts were broken
when your spirit soared
We send our love
and so much more
My darling Son
A father 
A husband
Still missing you so
Why did you go
~~~
Dear Son
we wish you 
Happy Birthday
On this the day 
that you were born

My dearest boy
My darling Son
My heart has broken
Now you have gone
~~~
For Son
you were my only one…

Written 18th December 2021
For my Son
