The first poem I ever wrote about my special son

Tweet

My son was born with Cerebral Palsy almost 27 years ago, we were told he would not live and if he did he would be a vegetable, well as some of you on the site already know, He is a good looking 6 ft tall handsome guy and has his HND in computing and he is now doing a BA and a Bsc at open uni . This is the first poem I ever wrote for him . I hope you enjoy it, And thank you in advance fot taking the time too let me know what you think xxxx ROSS MY SON It seems like a very long time ago I'll tell you this story just so you'll know I was almost 38 you see When something fantastic happened to me I had another little boy His dad and I we jumped for joy There was no crying I was worried Around the ward the nurses hurried There must be a problem time slowly passed I held my breath too scared to ask They put him in an incubator We got to see him much much later We sat beside him many days we sat and looked and we just prayed our prayers were answered I'm glad to say We've watched him growing day by day He's 15 now nice in every way He still has problems Oh! Yes he does But he still means the world to us
