A gift sent from heaven above,
A bundle of joy and love.
Patiently awaiting his debut'
At last he was ushered into view.
On August 11, of this year,
At 4:50 a.m., Oh, Dear..
A precious little bundle of joy,
Was introduced as a beautiful boy.
All dressed in his fuzzy down of white,
And almost gave his Dad a fright.
Mom doing well and quite relieved,
That into this world, he was finally received.
His Gran is a dear friend of mine,
I call her Mate, and she calls me Shy.
We met over on poetry poem,
And have become like family born.
A prouder Gran you will never find,
Love for her kin is very defined.
She sent me an email ASAP,
To announce the birth of Scott to me.
It was past time to rise in Wallasey,
But I was still on line around three.
And soon the message crossed the ocean
What a wonderful surprise to get notice.
My Mate had planted a rose bush in love
In memory of her father who has gone above.
This week, the buds all burst into bloom,
Just as if Great Grandpa was saying, "I approve."
Well the fine young lad is a sight to see,
He weighed in at a healthy 7, fourteen.
All is well at the Cropper household,
With a brand new precious life in the fold.
So I give my congratulations and well wishes too,
For a happy and blessed life for all of you.
Remember the gift that God has given,
Is merely on loan, a treasure from Heaven!
