My first born son.
The joy that was mine,
at the birth of this
babe!

God gave him the energy
of two little boys,
and two Green Machines
he ran into the ground.

As he grew he became
a champion Pied Piper
for the children who
lived nearby.
He'd organize games,
teach all the rules,
as they faithfully followed
his lead.

He's handsome and tall,
athletic and strong,
and intelligence
all rolled into one.

God gave him the gift
to teach and to guide.
With children he's
a marvel to see.
On each little face,
a wondrous look
of love and respect
you can't miss.

He's a friend that is true,
like brothers are they.
Through pain and through joy,
they've grown into men.

He's faithful and true
to his God up above,
whom he looks to for
every need.

He's this mothers delight,
his fathers great pride.
We thank God every day
for this wonderful son.

Dear ELLIE, after reading several poems thast you have posted concerning your family--it seems that you have be more than abundantly blessed with a family of winners!-Each a winner in their own ways.  What a blessing, and I am persuaded that you had sosignificant part in helping shape and mold them into successful adults and human beings.  I know Alex must be proud of this great tribute!
