You arrived
Quiet at first
Then suddenly everywhere
You taught my hands
How to hold something
I never want to lose
You walk
And the world shifts
You laugh
And the dark folds back
I see the man you’ll be
Glowing inside the boy you are
A small flame
Already learning
How to burn steady
If life ever shakes you
Remember this truth
You were loved
Before you ever spoke
And you’ll be loved
Long after I’m gone
My sons
My echos
My beginning again
