Loved

This goes out to my little one
He is such a sight to see
The one that I call my son
What a wonderful piece of me

He quickly learned to laugh
He often smiles at us
I could write a paragraph
There is plenty to discuss

My boy, you need to know
That you are loved dearly
I will make sure to show
My love for you clearly

Loved was written for my son Jack. He’s five months old today and he’s changing quickly. I already love him so much and can’t imagine a life without him. If something were ever to happen to me, and he didn’t get a chance to know me, at least in some measure I can send him a message through this poem, so that he can know that he was wanted, and he is loved.
