Zander

A poem for my son...

As my son lies down to sleep
I sing to him and rub his feet
I watch him as he drifts away
and pray he'll find his voice one day

My life before him... incomplete
My life since him... bittersweet
I've cried a lot of hopeless tears
I've learned to cope and live with fears
I try my best to light his way
through the darkest of his Autism days.

If people would stop to look they'd see
the ray of light he's meant to be
His love is one I've never known
a love I hope one day he's shown

He's my angel 

He's my heart
My little Zander... a work of art
