On National Sons Day
From the moment you arrived, you brought a light so true,
A steady, glowing beacon — my world began with you.
Without you here beside me, I can’t begin to say,
How lost I’d be without your love to guide me every day.
In a house of sisters’ laughter, you sometimes stood alone,
But never doubt your brilliance, your light was all your own.
You carved your place so deeply in the fabric of our days,
With quiet strength and kindness that showed in countless ways.
Even now, they come to me, with memories to share —
Of all the lives you’ve touched with thoughtfulness and care.
They speak your name with warmth, with gratitude, with grace,
A testament to all the ways you brightened up this place.
There are so many reasons to be proud, too many to list,
You’ve given life a meaning I never would have missed.
You’re not just my son — you’re a part of my soul,
The piece that made my spirit more whole.
So thank you, my heart, for the man you’ve become,
For letting me know what it means to have a son.
On this day, and always, I celebrate you —
The gift of a lifetime, so precious and true.
