She game a gift that I couldn't give myself,
The love of a baby boy so sweet.
It was hard to accept at first,
But, in the end he is my reason to live.
He brings back moments that I lost,
Making our futures seem brighter.
Nothing can replace a gift like that,
Only the thought of heaven's light.
Year after year he grows taller,
And he matures into a young man.
Being here to watch such a miracle,
Makes me want to do all I can.
He has changed her in great ways,
She now flourishes in delight.
Turning a world into roses,
She didn't even know how it might.
He has made us all proud of him,
A miracle in the making as days pass.
I could never return the favor,
Giving back such a great gift.
