To My Baby On this, your special birthday; You came into this world. They placed you gently on my chest; And I reached, with arms unfurled. I feel your soft, new skin on mine; And I hear your little cry. I feel as if we still are one; It's as if you're still inside. Words cannot explain my thoughts; Nor the feeling in my heart. I know that for the rest of our days; We will never be apart. Our bond began nine months ago; When you became a part of me. And today, you're still inside my soul; But, now the world, you'll see. Today I experienced something beautiful; No words could ever convey. Just know, that now and forever more; You are in my heart to stay. I'll do my best to show you love; And all good things that life can bring. Now you're permanently part of my being; And to me, you're everything. Happy Birthday, sweet child of mine; I thank God, for giving you to me. Just know, that for the rest of your life; I will love you, unconditionally! © Betty Hawkins 2003 (All Rights Reserved)
