Blue

He said you'd be a boy, and I thought blue

I knew my love would be tried and true

I wondered if yours would be too

My joy, nothing in the world could subdue

I brought you into this world and felt blue

Every doubt and insecurity shone through

Caring for you, I had no clue

For a tiny moment, having you, I did rue

Your hands and feet were turning blue

When I took you to the hospital, they knew

Not long for this world and nothing they could do

To you, they said I should bid adieu

A second chance we got as the sky beamed blue

Cut, stitch and sew the doctors did do

Your care and treatment long overdue

And now a fresh start for me and you

To start over life anew.
