Today he turned twenty one, my beautiful son

Some Seventy Six Hundred and Sixty Five Days ago

God came to bestow upon me my legacy to be



I watched him grow and wouldn’t you know

This day had come so sudden, left me wondering

how could my “Little Man” be a man?



His smile says so much, he’s loved by all that it will touch

And mostly by me, as I see in him my son

Some glimmer of me, t’was I once was



I pray for his wisdom from God

His guidance, his love, come from above

That he shares his blessed days of sunshine



That his heart stays soft ,

His faith stays strong

And that one day, much to his dismay

By the Grace of God

He’ll look upon his own twenty one

As I have done…and look up to the heavens

And pray, “Thank You Jesus” as I’ve done this day
