My Prince

To John Paul on this very special day. Love you always Mum xxx

A baby boy was born to me forty years ago
Yet it seems like yesterday and I want him to know
That as I held him in my arms and looked at my sweet son
I`ll ne`er forget how wonderful a thing I felt I`d done

I watched him take first tiny steps which soon turned into strides
Not a baby any more, but he is still my pride
Memories linger on and on and `though he`s now full grown
He is still my baby boy, will always be my own.

Do not doubt me my sweet lad, my love is staunch and true
Your Mama loves you very much and gave her heart to you
The moment you were put on earth and every second since
You are my very precious boy, my son, my flesh, my prince
