You are so big
Yet still so small
Your growing body
feels it all
Some days are hard
You try your best
I see the love you
Try to express
I always see it
When others don’t
I’ll never doubt it
Promise, I won’t
As you enter
This new age
The ebbs and flows
Of this stage
Know I’ve got you
I’ll be right here
Now and beyond
This second year
Because I love you
Unconditionally
Because you’re my baby
Just past infancy
Terrible?
No, not all
It’s terrific, a privilege
To have you at all
So here’s to you
In your second year
I’ll see you soon
I’ll meet you there.
