Michael



Michael
You are an unexpected joy
A gift entrusted in a time of pain
My spirit brought back from darkness
Happiness when I thought I would never breathe again

Your cute little dimples
And mesmerizing brown eyes
To know you is to love you
The joy of my life

Your smile lights up my world
Your laughter a most contagious thing
I love you from the very depths of my soul
You are the best part of me

I do not know why He entrusted you to me
But He knew you before you were a gleam in my eyes
And how important you would be

To my heart, for my healing
A love song written in the stars
Oh my dearest son
I cant express just how precious you are

So I thank my Heavenly Father
Thank Him from my very depths
For my spirit that once was in chaos
Looks at you and feels at peace and can rest
