Charles Messina Poet Haiku

Notes About The Poem

Example for my contest

Oh, Little Boy

You bring me joy
My newborn son 
Oh, little boy 

Your button nose 
Your hands, your toes 
How "my face" glows 

Your eyes that shine
Your little face 
It glows, like mine

Oh, precious boy 
My only son 
You bring me joy
