Little Man

My lovely boys
          you have given me so many joys
   your little smile
              the light in your eyes
           inside my heart just sighs
           A little hand that grips so strong
i hum to you a little song
 in my arms i swat to and fro
    how much i love you so
i'll promise you, you'll always know
Each fall,each stumble
my heart dose rumble
           Little hands ,little feet
my love you are so precious and sweet
the look of wonder upon your face
 the world for you is such a big place
   Hush little one don't shed a tear
 my promise to you is that i will always be near
  as you sleep i watch over you
who will you be ,what will you do
 As your mother i will always be there
no matter what i will always care
 Things won't be easy, most will be tough
sometimes you'll say you've had enough
Many steps on your path will show you your way
but your choices will always have the final say
Be kind and gentle
maybe even a little sentimental
don't let yourself doubt
There will be a day when the boys will becomes a man
you may be strong ,as well as tall
but i will see is my little man...
