A daddy holds his new born baby boy. His thoughts.


Poem Artwork

Daddy's Hands

by Kathy Lynn

 

Our greatest wish has been fulfilled today

For we were abundantly blessed with you

Hearts overflowing with love and joy

For today we welcome our new baby boy

 

Months spent in anticipation

As the day of your birth came near

Gave away to overwhelming love

Our eyes filled with happy tears

 

Now I hold you in my hands

Visions running through my mind

Of you as a child growing up

Into a smart and loving man

 

My little boy you will be ours

As you take your walk through time

Holding your hand tightly

As up the ladder of success you climb

 

We will always be there for you

As you grow into manhood

Through happy days and smiles

Sad ones filled with trials

 

But always remember one thing

My precious little one

This is the very first day of your life

Your adventures have just begun

Kathy, what I love about your writing is it goes straight from the page to your heart , no interuption, no nonsense, really commuciates and that is what we hope to accomplish I think with anything we write. I am not trying to get you to read my stuff but this poem has the same feel as my "That Little Hand of Mine" about my memories of a me as a 5 year old kid on a farm and how i remember my parents and that simple life.
I got to figure out how to put a pic with a poem when I see one that fits the theme.
Yours are great.
Dan

Very nicely done Kat and I am sure it captures the feelings that you had so long ago when your own son was born. Lovely.
