To the Sons of My Heart©️by Felina Silver (copyright 2025)

I did not weave you from my own thread of being,
yet somehow the stars placed you near,
and in your laughter, your daring, your dreaming,
I found new worlds to hold dear.

You danced into chapters I hadn’t yet written,
bright sparks in the lantern of time,
teaching me love in its many disguises,
in ways both tender and prime.

Now you are men—fathers, creators,
crafting your lives with your hands,
and I, in the wings, watch in wonder,
as each of you proudly stands.

Thank you for letting me walk in your story,
for opening doors to your skies,
for bringing me more than I ever imagined,
a treasure beyond any prize.

So may joy keep spilling like rivers around you,
may laughter be stitched in your days,
and may you remember—a piece of my spirit
will follow wherever you blaze.
