A Father's Wish

Hopeful whispers in the quiet of the dawn,

A father's love, forever drawn.

Held him in my hands, a miracle so small,

Bright-eyed wonder, the universe in his call.

His laughter lit the room, brightening every part,

A shining star that captured my heart.

Years went by, he grew tall and strong,

Like his father, singing life’s sweet song.

Looking out for love, a shining light,

Waiting for the one to make it right.

Hope he finds a love so true,

Like the one I knew, so pure and new,

A good woman, to stand by his side,

In this world wide, with love as their guide.

Through the days and the nights,

May he always find his way,

With a heart full of hope,

And dreams that never fade away.

So here's my wish, for him today,

Joy and love, come what may,

May he find a love that’s kind and dear,

And forever stay near.
