He reads this every day
And he says the words I say.
“Precious child of mine,
No need to moan and whine,
For pain is absent from me
And my old eyes can see.
I can walk and even run;
I'm in the light of the son.
So take a break and smile.
It's this I do wish my child.
I look over you each day;
I am the footsteps along the way.”
