You were conceived with a love so tender
To steel my heart you were certainly a contender
My shining star was finally born
My role to always guide and protect I had sworn
Your big blue eyes always piercing so deep
In the rocking chair I’d sing you to sleep
I’ve proudly watched you develop and grow 
With your charismatic personality constantly aglow
While sometimes met with that stubborn streak
Always making an effort to listen when you speak
Your individuality you love to shock
Putting up with your peers as they do mock
Watching you perform pulls at my heart string
Seeing you achieve causes my teary eyes to sting
This past year you have been so brave
I sense it felt like your were surfing a crashing wave
I’m confident son you will continue to shine
With your visual art being a constant sign
Allowing us to see your sensitive side
Sure does fill me up with over flowing pride
I understand the anger you must feel
All this crap it must seem so unreal
In yourself always believe
With your inner strength there’s nothing you can’t
achieve
Be assured son for you I’m always here
No matter where just call and I’ll appear
I want you to know I love you my son
Never be afraid to your dreams to run
With the world as your oyster full of rewards to reap
Feel assured my unconditional love is yours to keep
