Thomas (for your Baptism)


Tenderly, we love thee.
Honoured we are, entrusted to look after you
Our Saviour has commissioned us, to take care of you
May we always treasure this gift from above.
Angels on high, look over our family, guiding by the
Spirit of God, leading in all of our lives.

I imagine Chris and Mary; this is how you feel
Over the birth of your son,
Like Deanne and John before.
Pledging before God, to take care
Of His little angel on earth�

THOMAS, I believe, this is how seriously Chris and Mary
Take the responsibility, of looking after you.
For you are a gift from above everybody agrees

And, as friends of your parents
We support the Kathros family.
Through this poetic dedication, and prayer
For your life, we wish for you to be�

Forever found, rich in friendship,
Warm in love.
Content with life,
Healthy in mind, body and spirit.
With enough wealth, to meet your needs,
Yet humble enough, to appreciate.

Blessings for you and your family today
Coz we care so very much for all of you
Please accept this token gift
Words from our heart to yours, with prayers
God bless you and your family, upon this, your baptism day.

"This poem was written for a friend's son, who was baptised recently. When I gave my friend this poem, for his son, he was stoked! Because it's something they can keep forever! And when Thomas is old enough to read, Chris can tell him, who I am, and maybe Thomas will identify me as the family friend, who's also a poet. Maybe a published poet by then? We can all dream..."
