There is a special feeling
That I have in my heart for you
Which fills me to bursting point inside
When I gaze into those eyes
So Big & Bright & Blue.....

I know the feeling's mutual
As yet another smile lights up your face
And all of lifes little problems
Simply disappear without trace

Now each day brings memories anew
To be savoured for all time
And Rhiannon it is down to you,

Sweet Blue eyed child of mine.....

How precious and tender, dear John. I recognize the feeling ... my two little grandsons provide the same.

John,

"Rhiannon" is a great name for a kid.  I like the poem too.  I'd like it better if it was left justified.  That would make it easier to read.
