FOR JAKOB

FOR JAKOB
I wonder if you’ll ever realize,
How much I really love you.
You envelope my every moment.
Nothing else comes before you, or above you.
I was blessed with you, at the age of forty.
I called you,” my wonderful
Little surprise!”
I held your tiny body, gently in my arms that entire night.
You woke up at moments,
Gazed at me curiously ,with those big brown eyes.
Now that you’re older,
We argue and fuss.
But, we both know, there’s an
Unbreakable bond that lives between us.
You know , there’s nothing in the world more important to me.
Than doing whatever I can to teach you, and make your days happy.
Just know that mommy loves you, and will forever.
My defiant little one.
A good night kiss on your forehead now,
Sleep well, my darling son
