For my son

[sunshine]

I just wanted to share this poem with you which i wrote many years ago after the birth of my first son John Jo.


When God made my little boy, he took the greatest care,
he gathered stars and moonbeams and placed them in his hair.

He took the bluest ocean and the deep blue skies,
he mixed them both together and placed them in his eyes.

My little boy is so special, he wanted you all to see,
so he wrapped him up in rosebuds and passed him down to me.

I had the great honour and privilege of being John Jo's mother and spent 25 yrs with my unique beautiful son, never a day goes by where i don't think of some wonderful memory and he still makes me smile and laugh.
Some-one once said to me it's tragic for a mother who as empty arms, and yes of course i would love to be able to hug him and hold him, but my arms aren't empty not really, i can still feel him, my arms are full of his love and wonderful memories which i count myself so, so lucky to have.
Sleep in peace John Jo, i love you xxx

Love to you,
Sunshine xxx :-)
