The Son You Have Borne Today
We've loved one another deeply
For longer than I can say --
And the finest expression of love I've known
Is the son you have borne today.
I'm awed by your strength and effort
All night, into early morn.
And the greatest reward we ever will know
Is the son who has just been born.
Your job is to love and nurture
And guide him along the way.
Fully half of your life you'll sacrifice
For the son you have borne today.
He'll grow into strong adulthood
Inspired by your strength of will
Then turn from your side to confront his life
And yet be your baby still.
May he be your life's fulfillment
In ever so many ways.
For the very best part of your beauty, my love,
Continues beyond our days.
Return to Off and Springing
