A gift from God above

I wrote this for my son, when he was born.

I remember when I first got you
A precious gift from God above
A day when all my dreams came true
A day filled with happiness and love

I remember when I first held you
As the tears ran down my face
When I wasn't sure of what to do
But to hold you in my embrace

And I remember the time
You first glanced into my eyes
Struck by your love
You gave me butterflies

I never could imagine
Anyone greater than you
My darling little angel
So pure and so true

You were that little boy
I waited for all my life
A precious bundle of joy
My son Trent Matthew Balentine

I wrote this to let you know
That you are my gift from God above
God sent me something special
And I could never thank him enough
