To My Beloved Son Oliver Emmanuel! Poem by Shaila Touchton

You are a gift from God you truly are
A blessing with a miracle
A blessing sent from Heaven above
Who is so precious as an apple of my eye,
You are my little baby boy who captured my heart
You fought all the battles
When you were in NICU
And came home victoriously
I know that battle was hard and tough
But God was with in you,
For the Impossible is now possible to you
Because you have his name

You are the gift of God’s love for me
I love you my Son so passionately
The Love I Felt when I brought you home from NICU
The happiness you brought in my life
Words can hardly describe
You mean so much to me

When you cry, I will hold you in my arms
and comfort you!
When you smile and laugh,
I will smile and laugh with you
I will be with you
Through life's sorrow and pain

Every day, every month, every year,
I watch you grow by my side
And when you accomplish Godly standards in your life
I will be proud mother of you!
God Give me patience, guidance, and wisdom
to direct my son in your path.

You are the image of your dad
So Wonderful and beyond compare
I know someday you would Grow up and be smart,
And be a handsome man Godly, brave, tall and strong
Standing right by your Dad’s side
The man of whom I am proud of!
Always remember whatever you go through in life
No matter what, I will always love you
The love I have for you is immeasurable
Always Remember My love for you will never fade


You bring me so much delight
You bring me tears of pride and joy
Your smile goes for miles which is inspiration to me
Warming my heart and soul
I love so much my Dear Son
I will protect you day and night in my arms from all harms
I will keep you safe within my sight
You are so special and you mean the world to me
Because you are my son and I am your mother
I have seen and being with you when you battled for life in NICU
You have changed my life so much
You completed our family, you made us a whole.

Whether Good times and bad times
Up and downs in your life
Always remember God and be thankful
For you have the life of God
Always love God, because he will Never stop loving you
He will never leave you nor let you down,
He will never stop helping you nor giving up hope on you,
In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path
I pray that you continue to grow in the Lord
And be filled with more faith every day
And please Him in every way
By obeying and following his commandments and laws
Always put on the whole armor of God
That you may withstand every evil corrupted way
And be the man of God bringing glory to God and family.
Thank you God for blessing me with my little baby Boy!
