Perseverance





You really wanted to come.

No thoughts, no emotions, no action
taken by others - including me - 
against your determination
could have stopped you,
my sweet little man.


And I must confess
even though I hesitated
and agreed you were not welcome
I am ever so glad
you came
to make us all happy
all anew
Because you obviously can.
