APPLE FESTIVAL - The Apple of My Eye

Went to a local Apple Festival with my wife and 12 year old boy this past week. Had a great time and came up with the following tribute for my son, Jon while we were there. I hope you enjoy and may God bless you all.

You are the apple of my eye
You are my own, my pride and joy
Unexpected twelve years ago
When you became my little boy

A gift sent from Heaven above
No other gift could mean so much
You have filled our home up with love
With your soft, tender loving touch

But you are growing much too fast
Yet watching you grow is so much fun
I wish I could slow time down a bit
Too soon you'll be a teen, my son

Then soon you'll find a girl of your own
Could she take you away from me?
With all that we have that can't happen
We'll just add more love to our family!

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
