Anthony

all moments spent in time are a gift
to behold upon many and few
and the stress of this world
is but a challenge to be in the spirit
not missing a day or an hour

saturday morning giggles in his room
and socks are bound to come off
singing songs only he can understand
this light of my life is a constant reminder
of love and the glory of God

sunny days and stormy nights
are brighter with his presence
silence is a peaceful time
the warmth of his cancer heart
and his laughter are gold to my ears

his momma is where it all started
her gentle face and sweet blue eyes
I held her and rocked in the night
changed my life for all time
and I'll die with blessings unlimited

my life was running to the heartbeat of addiction
and the streets were the place for my feet
though the sun never rose, the pain never gone
it was bitter to avoid without knowing
the depth of my soul it would heal

I pray it never touches the hearts of my children
reflections of love in the mirror of their faces
and smiles and the hugs that they give
I'll hold you forever in my heart

for the love of my God my friends and my lovers
our Creator is the sweetest nectar alive!
