I haven’t known you very long
what my heart feels can’t be wrong.
I’ve read the words you’ve written down
they’ve made me smile, they’ve made me frown.
You’ve soon become a part of me
you have a thirst to know, and see.
Many questions you will ask
to answer them will be my task.
You call me ‘Mum’ that’s how I feel,
the joy it brings I can’t conceal.
You are my ‘Son’ but not by birth,
our caring love brings so much mirth.
I’ll always be here should you need
a hand to hold, a voice to heed.
You read my words and say I’m wise,
but I have lived and these blue eyes
have seen a lifetime full of love,
and with the grace of God above
I’ll impart my thoughts to you
as you grow and live your lifetime through


Be blessed! ~K
