My Innocent One

Eyes of blue, trusting one
Staring up with blazing sun
Towheaded brilliance hidden
Beneath layers of the innocent one

Straight with words to cut
A heart of blue to gold
Words fashioned with wisdom
From the lips of one so young

Take me there with you little one
My son, to your brilliant world
Full of timed truth, play and fun
Fill me with your wisdom

Mark my days with your brightness
Send the shadows beneath where they belong
We are one, today we find the way
Blend your heart with mine

My son you have saved me
Each and every day
Is fresh light and airy
Eyes of blue, My merry son
My innocent one
