Beloved Son

Written by: Wilfred Mellers, Monday, April 12,2010 @ 1: 51 PM



To you my beloved son

Your life has just begun

I shall shout from mountains aloud

Of you I am truly proud



Steadfast and true to the letter

Be not like me but only better

To greatness I’ve watched you grow

Now I stand to shout bravo



Through perseverance you have stride

Overflowing my heart filled with pride

As the accolades finally subside

My arms will remain always-open wide



Blessed from birth with natural rhythm

Given I to you the tools to blossom

A force to be reckoned with so truly fearsome

I’m your biggest fan for you are awesome



Playing hard you do to cadences set

Every challenge beyond doubt you’ve met

Your birth I’ll never forget

Having you I’ll never regret



Life can feel like it’s always up hill

But I love you and always will

No father could ever be prouder

So I shall shout it out louder and louder
