Notes About The Poem

Wonderful

When I held you in my arms for the very first time,
Overjoyed that my baby boy was simply sublime.
New life that I had pushed into the world, 
Darling son, oh how my emotions whirled.
Every day brought us something new,
Recording every moment as you grew.
Filling our lives with laughter and joy,
Unconditional love for our beautiful boy.
Love you forever my wonderful son.

Hi Jan, a wonderful write from your golden pen. There is no Love so complete than a mother's Love How wonderful to know that you bring life into a world, how through the years you nurture and protect your child, the Love you forever shower on your child, the tears and sorrows you bear, the joys and happiness you share. A life lived. What an excellent acrostic. A seven from me Jan. Hugs....MIKE. XX
