A poem for Cody


�My Son�

When I was a child I wanted a mother,
With which I wasn't blessed.
When I grew up I wanted a son,
And God gave me the best.


Now I'm not saying that you're perfect,
We've had our ups and downs.
But When I needed some one the most
You were always around.


When you were growing up
I tried to teach you right from wrong.
But now you're teaching me
So many things I didn't know.


You have a place in my heart
Where no one's ever been.
You are my son,
You are my friend.
