A Poem for my boy (living with his mother)

in life •  7 years ago 

This is for you my son..

The first time I saw your beautiful face
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. :)

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

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

Beautiful. Absolutely.

--
This reminds me of my daughter, living with her mother.. Whom I have not been able to see since she was 10 days old.. :/

I hope to see her soon.. It's been months.. :(

I hope you get more time with your son soon, I know just how precious that time is and I can see that you are a good father who values that time very much..

Much love to you, and great post! I enjoyed reading it very much! :)

I m trying my level best to get my legal rights to see him but i m sure about one thing and that is up to a certain age kids need their mother but after that a father is must to advise them through harsh parts of life. My son need me now.

You write very beautifully. It's like I am feeling your emotions, sentiments.

After reading this poem I called my dad and I said him thank you, thank you for everything, your love, support everything you gave me selflessly.
My dad was like "what happened do you need money, hehe". At the end feels so good to have this conversation.

Thank you, sir, for such wonderful poem and the boy is so cute.....

Thanks buddy.. Your words are the reward i was looking for.. :)

So kind of you...
hehe....!!!!!!!!!!!

Awwwww, he looks so handsome. The words of your poetry is truly touching. I have been having maternal feelings this New Year, I really hope to hold my own baby in my arms before the year runs out. I have to get married first though. 😊

GOOD LUCK to you.

If u do have a baby, you'll be so blessed.
(One tip: When he/she becomes a teen, provide him w/ an advanced course in Defensive Driving. Just my thoughts - to keep him/her SAFE

OK I will. I can't even drive 😂

Lol, Having a kid is the best feeling in the world. It can never be described in words. Get married and have lots of kids.... :)

Thank you. I can't wait! 😊

A very handsome boy. Always keep in touch with him. He needs his father. I know easier said than done. But make the effort. It is so worth it in the end. The poem is so heartfelt. I loved it.

I am always there for him and try my level best to keep in touch. Thanks for your appreciation. :)

It is so difficult when there is a parting of the parents...

Its a life long pain. :(

Happy birthday to you adorable heart
You are a gift not just to dad but this earth
The good Lord will direct your steps and path
Your blessings will multiply in folds like in math
Have a great one and do daddy proud.
That was a heartfelt post by you. I know he is thinking of you too. I wish you all the best.

Thank you so much for your words. I am overwhelmed with the affection your words reflect. Thanks once again.

You are most welcome. Thank you. Stay strong for him.

Hope he miss you soon man. It's hard longing your blood.

U are so gifted in writing poems! A talented parent. Your kid will be so proud of u!

Thanks buddy. i just try to express my feelings through words.

This is the great poem I've ever seen which is dedicated to the beautiful cute son. May God connects you with your kid forever same with this feeling. I've read some of the poetry sections but all were the romantic one but your post is totally different than other ones. That's the huge love which you made with your cutie pie son. :)

May God give you more happiness :)

Thanks buddy. I try to express myself in words. I am thankful that you could relate to it.

Spreading love is also a great blessings and many of us are not getting this blessing in this world but I'm glad that your kid has got a great loving chum who wrote poetry for him. :)

Thanks for your appreciation buddy.

How sweet and beautiful, I also want to read this to my little boy, thank you~~

If you will read this to your boy then it will be the biggest reward for me.

Nic kid

What a cute little child. Sweet poem.

Beautifully said. A father's love is not easy to put into words.

We feel pain but we keep smiling. We love them madly but we maintain our posture firm and girls, we cry but when we are alone. We have heart and it breaks... :(

good poem, must be hard not seeing him everyday, I couldnt imagine.

Yes its very hard on me but god's will.

Very beautiful! I love the poem. You can feel the pain and love. And he is so adorable! :)

You are welcome,take care of yourself and the cute looking young man.

A couple more tears here...it got me right in the feels. Are you sending it to him now or waiting until he's older?

I am going to make a frame and going to send it to him on his B day.

I'm sure he will cherish it!

Anak pemberian dari tuhan yang sungguh mulia

Itu betul.

Jaga lah dia yg baik. Maka dia akan membalas jasa orang tua nya

Cintaku untuk anakku tidak bersyarat dan aku tidak mencari upah untuk itu. Saya hanya ingin dia tetap sehat dan mendapatkan pendidikan yang baik.

A mother's love always real and true

Whether its father or mother, both love their kids equally. Both wants the best for their kid.

Beautiful child :)

Beautiful, the tenderness that radiates a child is insurmountable, his ingenuity and innocence are the perfect inspiration, I follow you.

Thanks. :)

if worst had happened, then next thing is obviously good. Distance between two events is Time -srisri . Start some social work and doing meditation try this

The gravity of a mother's love no one can fathom, for it is fathoms deep. Protective. Restless. Understood by none but one's mom. A mother's love flows into places no one, not even the mother can tell. But it is there nonetheless. Unfathomable. Raw. Real. And she is true to the one she bears. Kudos, keep moving. Keep fighting. Dear mother.

" Apne mann ki ho to achha aur nahi ho to aur bhi achha" becoz god knows better than us. I live my life with these words buddy. May god bless you with all the love and support and a beautiful soulmate to relieve your pain and lonliness. Stay blessed always. He is your blood ,he will come back to u only.

Oh my God!! I love this... You must be a good father 🙂👍🏾

You are lucky to have each other, and he is totally cute :)
The poem is good, sweet and loving, filled with emotions, with just enough rhyme and rounded up beautifully. Kudos!

Thanks but my son lives with his mother and i barely see him. My fight over my visiting rights is on. He is my life.

You will see him more and more, you'll see. Don't think of it as a fight, but a challenge, and I just know you are great at dealing with challenges.

You are kind women.😒🙁☹️

That call the great love of father

The hardest part of my divorce was the effect it had on my son... it tore my heart out. Beautifully written and prayers for you both that you will be reunited <3

amen. Thanks
