Boy under my heart

How can I keep you, hold you safe?
How can I give you
Your father's stubbornness
Your brother's compassion
Your sister's wonder
My strength?

How can I show you a lifetime
in the moments we will share?
Should I hire a symphony
to play for your arrival?
Should I have a quartet
waiting to sing you to heaven?

Will one hour in my arms be enough
to last you an eternity?
And how will I remain
Without your sweet presence?
When you return to the Love that created you
How will I go on?
