My Son Mark's Birthday is the 21st of June
You have to express pride in all that he is,You hold him, fast asleep in your arms, and wonder
What he’s dreaming. As you watch him at play,His imagination takes him Someplace you can’t quite follow.
You see his interests, tastes, his talents taking shape,All the while guessing at what he’s thinking.
You look at the man he’s grown up to be And marvel at how everything stirred so smoothly
Together to make him what he is
You see in him so much you always hoped for, So much you never could have dreamed
And it’s all a part of your love for him. It’s all part of why you’re so proud
To have him for a son.
You observe as he grew so tall and smart Successful and independent he became,
Much like his daddy, And it’s not just because of heredity Nagging had something to do with it too.
Love, Dad
