First Love?

Who was your first love?

My son has fallen in love,
He told me yesterday.
A wife she’ll make for him
He’ll marry her one day.


His smile was genuine
His words were sincere
Am I to lose this boy?
A child I hold so dear?


Who is this fearsome girl?
To steal my boy away.
To take his love from me
And lead my lad astray.


She must be something special
To win his heart this way
To catch his boyish eye
And lead him on this way


Does she truly love him
As only a mother can
Or is she just a Jezabel
With eyes for any man.


I’ll keep an eye on her
Find out what she’s about
Let her know the lad is mine
Let their be no doubt!


I should be broken hearted
But I can guarantee
He’ll not be leaving yet awhile-
Because he’s only three.
