his heart beats strong now
within his small chest
a babe newly born could
hardly find a breath
his clear blue eyes show
a window to his soul
blond hair & dimpled chin
he’s such a dapper fellow
came to dig in my garden
right along his dad’s side
a shovel bigger than he is
accomplishment & pride
even though the work was hard
never was there a complaint
he only asked his mom this
‘how much do kids make?’
