A Poem for my boy (living with his mother)
I understood God's amazing grace.
When I held your tiny hand I heard, in my heart, God say,
“ You Darling Angel is here to stay.. “
I only had you for three years,
but you gave me this unconditional love to show me the way.
I never knew I could love someone so much,
until I felt your gentle touch..
Your eyes- as deep as the sky above,
sparkling like diamonds filled with love..
Even though often I could not hear your sweet voice but
you being my boy I will always rejoice..
I am grateful for having you buddy,
I promise, I will always love you.
My sweet baby, I now know you are my Guardian Angel;
guiding me through every night and day, showing me the way..
Saying, hey dad, don’t worry everything will be o.k.
With you I will always stay.
I Wanted to wish you Happy New Year but i know you are not with me here,
I know someday you will miss me and the day it will happen , you will find me with you there.
Your dad with tears, not for the pain but with Love.
So beautiful ..
Kids really great gift ..
When dealing with them kindly
They give you all their feelings in love, respect and attachment
God Save him to you
You have some words that are deep and make anyone sink into it . Wishing you ease this year
These words are reflection of my pain :(
Thank you for this @honeychum . I dont know what made you write this but it is something I'm going through personally. People can be selfish and I just realized it after giving 10 years to my life to someone unfaithful. Life is difficult and seems purposeless in this phase but i'm certain I will survive this. More power to you my friend, I hope we all find what we are destined for. Upvoted and resteeming.
I know how you would be feeling. I have gone through the bad phase. I hated everyone but now i am at peace. You will go through with it but remember to stay positive.
I'm trying bro, its awful right now.
I can understand buddy. Have patience.
Beautiful poem @honeychum, thanks for sharing. For a moment I thought and feared the worst, not until I read your reply to @hrhridoy 's comment and the title of the post again did I feel at ease. That was a beautiful piece filled with suspense. He is such a handsome boy, I don't know the details of the separation but I join you in prayers to say you will both meet soon, in fact before the end of the year by God's grace.
You can have a look at my poem on The Past as well @ https://steemit.com/poetry/@delphia16/the-past-the-graveyard-of-many-dreams-an-original-poem
Bless you - and I enjoyed your comment.
Thank you so much @janashby for your warm comment, I appreciate it.
Thank you so much for your gesture.
Thanks for your good wishes. Your words reflect your soul. Thanks for replying. It boostedf the positives in me. :)
It is so soul-stirring and heart-wrenching. Such a poignant verse. The love you expressed brought my son's babyhood to mind :)
It is a very poignant poem. You can feel the pain and the love. You can feel the acceptance of sorrow as well as the pain of loss. You have expressed both the emotions with so much sensitivity. It brings to my mind a question, "What happened ? " .... Baby in the picture is so adorable and sweet. Such a charming smile . angelic. What happened, @honeychum ?
It is destiny which had played a major role in my life till now. Was it for good or bad? , i m no one to make an opinion. God knows but yes it is very painful. This is also true that my divorce made me a better man. I do not have grudges towards anyone. I am all open with wide hands accepting all failures, sorrows, hatred, happiness and love. When pain becomes unbearable then my words and my capacity of writing take the charge and it is my medicine. All is good.
I think i have adopted this habit to expect your comment or feedback over my posts. I don't feel its complete until you comment. Thanks a lot for completing this one. :)
It is always a pleasure to read your post.And my feedback is natural and instinctive and genuine. You write from your heart. and so my response too comes from my heart :) ...
Yes, divorce is painful undoubtedly. It is very respectful of you to have an objective and pragmatic view of the situation. There is one thing I always believe, @honeychum and that is this - Individuals are not wrong when a relationship ends. It is just that the circumstance was not suitable and the equation was not correct. And whatever happens, happens for the better.
Expressing the pain through writing is the correct thing. It gives a better perspective.
I wish you happiness, @honeychum ... And I wish you to have a good bond with your son . Marriage is not important in a bond between parent and child !
And I always love coming here and reading and commenting. Be rest assured that I will do it for sure :) ... Wish you happiness, @honeychum :). And your son is very cute. He has a very sunny smile :) . Wish both you and you son loads of happiness and prosperity :)
To feel someone emotions , one needs a good heart. Sometimes i think that if people take just few minutes in a day to ponder over the reactions and emotions of the people around then i believe there would be no hatred.
When someone gives honest opinion then you know it by heart. Someone reading your stories is the actual reward to them. I am very less vocal with the people around. I am a miser when it comes to spending words but there are very few times when i really want to say something or want to react to something and your comments are one of those. Your comments carry honesty, generosity and intellect in them. An honest feedback from heart can be felt easily. Thanks, my son adapted his mother's feature. What in this world could stop him from being cute. I see myself in his eyes. Curios and positive. @nehab & happy Lohri. Its also called Kite festival in Punjab.
Thank you, @honeychum , for the honour. I too like interacting with you . As I said earlier,you are a very genuine person. 💐💕😊 May the warm glow of Lohri fill your world with love and warmth. You are a good soul. May all your dreams and desires be fulfilled. Best wishes to you and your son. 💐💕😊🔥🎆🎇
Thanks a lot @nehab
Always my pleasure ...
wow.. Beautiful. Thanks for the flowers. :)
I Love You Honeychum :)
Thanks and i m flattered @hubtechinfo :)
You're so nice for commenting on this post. For that, I gave you a vote!
very nice poem and your baby is so adorable...
Lucky father having such a nice son and lucky son having such a poetic father.
Thanks @kristihh :)
That is touching poetry and that transfers your emotions, one can feel how this separation with your son made a gap in your life, that usually very difficult or better to say impossible to fill it with anything. Your son is really very cute and my respect for your talent to create rhyme. I know how I wanted but it is not something that comes when you want, until now I could not create any, unfortunately.
Thanks brother for our kind words. :)
Jeez..i can so relate to this poem.
My dad died on the 30th of December 2009 and i never felt such pain and absence. Truth been said, I blamed God, i mean, what could a 16-year old teen do?
It was painful but it could not be reversed.
I can imagine what you feel sir. He's very much alive. I particularly love that you said your tears were of love and not of pain. More strength to you. I've followed you cos i really love your construction of lines. I also write poetry and I'd love for you to tell me what you think of this post https://steemit.com/poetry/@godwine/if
I'd so appreciate and do accept my condolences
