The Gift......

The Gift You Gave to Me

I never wanted to marry
It scared me to be ruled.
I never wanted children
But eventually there were the two of you.

The gift you gave to me
Was something I thought I'd never have.
I'll never forget the first sight of you're big dark eyes,
Searching to connect with mine.
I knew at that moment I was given a gift,
I never thought I'd have.

I knew at the moment you saw your sister born,
The love that filled your face.
That I gave YOU a gift
You thought you'd never have.


I'll never forget the little girl
All wrapped up in a warm blanket,
With a stub sock on your tiny head for a hat.
I knew right then I was given the SECOND gift,
I thought I'd never have.
