How much happiness can be wrapped in one
person?
Like an ocean on a sunny day or a mountain,
Tossed with currents and undercurrents,
shadows
and a wild heart full of deep emotion.
How blessed the radiant smile, the laugh
that breaks
a solemn countenance, how deep the love
of faithful constancy, how strong the ties
of kinship, friendship, brotherhood and
mine,
the ties of motherhood and birth, the
stories told
of years now passed forever into time.
One thing is certain and will forever be
This child of my heart has his own
existence here
In memories of love, in scenes of joy
caught unaware
Baby boy laughing with bucket and spade
And the man now grown, searching another
sea
with visions of all that lies beyond for
him there.
