My baby Joseph

 

When I look into your eyes

I think of all the lullabies,

And how in you I see my dad,

The loving father I once had.

 

There’s times I feel my parents’ close by,

Looking down from their stars in the sky.

Sleeping soundly in your cot

A new grandson they’ve now got.

 

You could easily break my heart,

My life you are a special part,

That innocent look that’s in you,

From years gone by it’s déjà vu.

 

 

Mum
