    Picture Perfect Child

    The picture perfect child
    So delicate and sweet
    Each little appendage
    So perfect and unique

    I know I haven't been perfect
    But I do the best I can
    And someday when you're older
    I hope you'll understand

    Sometimes I get frustrated
    Your father left us behind
    But it seems to get better
    When your eyes look to me and shine

    I you're only small now
    But soon I know you'll see
    I really am trying son
    To be the best that I can be


    (Written in 1998 for my first born son, Jade)

    very beautiful and full of hope. i'm sure no matter what scenario his eyes will always shine in the sight of his mother. very well put

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
