I Give You Love

A poem for my children

I Give You Love

With every breath I love you more
All that I am
And all that I have
Is every part of you.

I give you love
That you may always love
And be loved in return.

I give you strength
That you may hold your head high
And always believe in yourself.

I give you peace
That you may be at ease with who you are
And always see the beauty that surrounds you.

I give you compassion
That you may appreciate
Uniqueness and individuality.

I give you happiness
That you may see joy
In the simple things around you.

And finally
I give you freedom
That you may grow
With beauty and pride
And always that special twinkle in your eye

[EILEEN McGUINNESS]

You offer the reader an insight here to what makes a person that little bit special those kind considerate words of encouragement and the strength to get through life and all of it's predicaments.
You offer wisdom but yet not the intollerable suffocation and claustrophobic strangling which one sometimes feels when things have got stale.
The verses flow gently and there is sincerity in the words which make your guy one lucky soul he will never have it so good as the day he chooses you.
