Who would have thought
with one child’s birth
such transformation
within my heart.
No hesitation
on my part
to uproot my life
and join your side.
Witnessing your
change and growth
has brought great
expansion of my own.
A guru in an infant’s
form has shone
the light where
it had dimmed.
You’ve bowed to me
and touched my feet.
With common ground
we’ve made a link.
I pay attention
to what you teach,
no matter if
you’re only three.
Now delight
is often near,
your joyous smile
brings sweet cheer.
These last few years
I won’t forget,
your entrance here
made my top-ten list.
