Notes About The Poem

4 syllables per line

Joy of Our Hearts

Light of our lives Kicking, he came And then our world Was not the same Joy of our hearts He's innocence Making us laugh With his presence Love of us all Childish babbles Stolen our hearts With his dabbles Heaven's li'l child Active and smart How blessed we’re To be a part! Sunshine that smiles Oh yes, that's him! Such naughty acts! Life's never dim Song of our lips He's truly that His parents' gem No matter what! His dad's delight His mom's treasure Whate'er he does Brings us pleasure Go, spread your light, Your love and joy This world needs you, Our bright young boy.
{This poem is about my young nephew} written on 08.27.2021 For Regina McIntosh's "The One Who Touched My Heart" contest
