My Son

He brings joy to my life, this precious son of mine
I can't imagine life without him, it is A love I can't define.

He thinks about A million things, his mind is never still.
He is always doing something, to him most anything is a thrill.

He doesn't forget when it is time to eat and bedtime he would like to ignore.
He has no trouble remembering what he wants but he forgets to do his chores.

There is never A dull moment when he is around, he won't let you forget he is there,
And when you are sad or have a problem, he is the first to let you know that he cares.

He has A beautiful smile that he shares with everyone,
He never sees A stranger because they soon become a friend that he won.

He can frustrate me to the point of tears and I don't know what to do,
Then he come's in the door smiles and says- 
"Look Mama at this pretty flower, I picked it just for you".
