Mine

You were brought to me
Through a couple hours of pleasure
Followed by many hours of pain.

You brought with you sunshine
Getting rid of so many clouds And so much rain.

Each day, I gaze at you
Because I love you
And you are God's gift.

With you I'm never down
Because you smile
And my spirits it lifts.

I love your little nose
And that beautiful dimple
I could kiss it all day long.

Just the touch of your finger
Makes me write poetry 
And even sing songs.

I can think of no happier day
Then when in my life
You so graciously came.

My heart leaps
And my soul jumps
At the mere mention of your name.

As we both grow
Before my eyes 
You try to be so strong.

But you know
That you still need me
To help you along.

For all the days 
Of your life
And of mine.

I love you
With the love
Of one-thousand hearts combined.
