To My Son

To My Son My Darling new baby You are perfect and right  I gave birth to you just before night I looked in your eyes and felt nothing but love Lying cradled I thanked the Heavens above You were a Joy, A Treasure and much more You are my son, my boy  I adore.   My Darling young son just look what you've done You've climbed up a tree  just for some fun What will we do  I cant get you down I'll phone for your dad he must be around. How did you get there in the first place? Oh dont tell me you'd to win that race.   My Darling son just look what you've done Your rooms to be cleaned! This is no time to run Slow down a bit you'll have  the job twice And both of us know  that's not very nice. I'll give you a hand, I always do But one of these days it'll be just you.   My Darling young man just look what you've done Grown up all  handsome and a wonderful son I'll cherish our moments right in my heart Because I'm your mum right from the start You've trained as a Pilot and aimed for the sky. My precious son this is no time to die. Written by Jinty Carrino 31/07/2018
