Ryan’s Poem

My beautiful imperfection
You changed your very fate
You threw away the odds they gave
And fell from heavens gate

My Moses in your basket
Alone and scared you lie
While angels kissed and held thy hands
Your bitter tears they dried

My little angel boy
Oh what have you to show?
A crooked walk a cast of blue
A will to live and grow

My little wooden soldier
with your broken halo fight
To live a life of valor
And shine with all your might

My pure and sweet miracle
I hope one day you’ll see
The wonder that you hold inside
And the treasure you will be
