the golden child

(dedicated to my godbrother Raymond...)

This child is golden.
He cannot be kept.
He cannot be tamed.

He will bring joy into your life,
But he cannot be kept.

His smile will brighten your day
His embrace will warm the coldest of cold cold hearts
His eyes will twinkle with mischief
His love will reach your innermost
His soul will raise your spirits

But in his body he cannot last.
He is a golden child.
He cannot be kept.
But his light will shine on.
