 Penniluck's legacy

Oors Forever


To my son Donald who is 36 years old today. 10/5/13 Can`t believe it son, have a wonderful birthday love always Mum and Da xxx


We planned you right down to a T
Yes we did, your Dad and me.
In a while along you came
It was hard when you got hame.
Doctors said you`d not survive.
But thankfully you stayed alive
You fought so hard to be, my son
Because you loved your Dad and Mum.
You were spoilt because we feared
We would never see you reared.
But in time you grew up strong
So we taught you right from wrong.
Now our laddies thirty-six
No more playing childish tricks.
Now our boy`s become a man
Part of everything we planned.
All the memories golden still
In oor hearts they always will.
Take us back to days gone by
Where we can hear your baby cry.
Watch you take your first wee step
Your baby voice we can`t forget.
Watch as off you go to school
Trying so hard to just be cool.
Time is nothing, matters not
Can`t take from us the things we`ve got.
So as we watch you take a wife
Walk together throughout life.
Don`t forget me and your Dad
You`ll be oors, forever, Lad.
