In the mirror...

What my eyes see...

I'm looking at, an unbelievable human being,
someone, who's so unique and bold,
someone, who has a heart made of gold,

A person, that I truly admire,
someone all the girls desire,

A soul that's unmatched,
a personality, that makes people get attached,

A person, people try to imitate,
a smile, everyone anticipates,

Someone, who sets a high standard,
a person, who's well mannered,

He's a great friend,
someone, I will always defend,

He's a great brother, and a wonderful, son to his mother,
In my book, he's number one,
standing next to me is my son,

Today, Cole is 13yrs old, my pride and joy,
the apple of my eye, and there's nobody alive,
that can break our tie...

Happy birthday son, I love you!!!

Happy Birthday Cole!

Nobody like Cole,
Such a fantastic energetic soul,
Anticipating his smile is only half the gift,
Cole's smiles arrive framed in golden haired drifts!

Coley's curls:)

Praise Jesus, for my unbelievable son!

How sweet a write. If more dads let their children know that they are loved this way; far less would be lured into drugs etc. Valentine

I have to apologise in advance JT - I thought ths was a write about you until near the very end. I thought it was a self-pep talk poem but when the penny dropped the love gushed forth and I was very impressed. You are both lucky to have one another.
Well penned my poetic friend.
