Face to face and heart to heart
Love that's given never parts
Child of beauty of my own
Heart for you becomes life's throne

Within this place you'll always be
Bonded love comes fruitfully
Blessed with heartbeats we now share
United in God's gentle prayer


Child of wonder child of light
Each morning sun is now so bright
Treasure of my greatest worth
Joyous love within your birth

Softest skin upon my face
Love I feel forever traced
Little hands that reach for me
Touched by love so endlessly.



Dedicated to my son Darryl with love:
