April’s Child

Forever isn't nearly long enough, my dear—
To cherish every moment, every tear,
To guide you through life's twists and turns,
To witness you spread your wings and fly,
And know that you'll one day reach the sky.

To love you until the stars grow dim,
And even then, my love will not wane or dim.
For you, my April diamond, are that priceless treasure,
A mother’s firstborn, precious beyond measure.

So let me hold you close, my darling one,
In the warmth of the April sun.
For in your eyes, I see a future so bright,
And in your heart, a beacon of light.

Forever isn't nearly long enough with you,
From your first breath, you’ve been a dream come true.
