Beautiful, beautiful
blue eyed boy-
Bluer then the bluest sea
Your first mew- no sound came out!
Oh we laughed.
So gentle and timid,
You grew to be the size of a lion!
With a long monkey tail
That daddy marveled at
Always comforting Sam
Holding space
for his vulnerability
Finding your place,
Your nook
Snuggling with daddy
Your brother has called you home now
Yet you still live
You live in our hearts forever
