Son

You came to me on angels wings Your smile was so divine, I looked into your big blue eyes Not believing you were mine. With skin so soft and hair of down You came to me that day, And as I held you on my breast You stole my heart away. Sweet child if you could ever know The love I felt for you, As the years flew quickly by That love just grew and grew. So I’ll just quietly watch you grow Into a man my son. I want you to know what a privilege it is For me to be your mom. Written by Brenda Meier-Hans 2002 Gautami Phookans Contest: The Sweetest Touches of Verse

A speical love for a son or daughter is so endering. They don't relize it ontil they have their own but even then do they think of us when they look down at there own feeling those same feelings we have for them. Beautiful Brenda :) eve
