Today I Held My Son"
As I held your Football uniform near my heart,
I couldn't put it down, I felt the love so close-
My Son, I held you.
So long since we hugged or even talked,
Yet there you were, in my heart,
Like when you were little and we snuggled.
My Son I held you.
A love so true, so deep, so genuine family-
Your spirit is in that suit, #20!
Pads and pants and straps and shirts,
All you, near my heart.
I could feel your thoughts and yearnings.
My Son I held you.
You seem so far from me in life-
But this day your close #20,
In my heart.
Today I held my Son
Love, Mom xxoo
