For Nikolus, My Youngest Son
You came to me, the final flame,
A gentle soul, a cherished name.
The years have shaped your steady grace,
A man of honor, heart, and place.
You speak with truth, you walk with light,
You stand for good, you choose what's right.
In every trial, you rise above,
With quiet strength and boundless love.
Now grown, you shine — a guiding star,
So proud I am of all you are.
Forevermore, my heart will run
Beside you, dearest youngest son.
