Sweet One
My heart is overflowing with gratitude
As I sit here contemplating your
sweet little soul
I have always known with unquestioning
certitude
That someday your presence would make
me whole
That you and your siblings would
bring joy and completeness
The sense that my life’s purpose had
been attained
With your smiles, your laughter,
your light and your sweetness
I promise my love will be
unrestrained
Take your time coming, but know we are
here
Praying for you every morning and
night
Waiting for your beautiful soul to
appear
For our lives to be illumined by
your radiant light
Your father and I promise to love
you forever
As high as the sky and as deep as
the sea
A love which nothing on this earth
can sever
As far as the earth's core and as tall as
the tree
This love will never for a moment waiver
It is as wide as the mountain and beyond
what you see
Have faith in this love and let it
help you be braver
As you learn to trust your heart
and to give endlessly
