"Baby Boy"

With creation, comes new life

Which forever changes all the steps here after this moment

Hand in hand holding

Strong

Embraced deeply with rich love

Bound by that divine connection that cannot be broken

Eyes of wonder searching

Learning

Taking in the sight of the new world

Innocence tender and soft

Limitless imagination unending

All waiting to be released

As you begin with your first few steps upon this earth

Parents and loved ones watch over

Guardians and witnesses of growth

Protectors of this beaming soul

Bearer of strength and encouragement

We are all here

Through it all

Storm clouds and sunshine

Never ending

And ever lasting

For you...

Memphis Terry Lee.

"Carry These Words"

Close your eyes my dear friend

Hold yourself still

Steal in the silence

You are here and now

Let your tears fall

Rest your head upon my shoulder

Fall into my embrace

I will support you

And cradle you tender

Let the darkness fall

Rest your weary being

I will watch steadily over you as you sleep

For I am the beating of your heart

I am the persistently strong breathing

I am the in and the out

The rise and the fall

I am the force as well as the source

I am the lyrics being re-written

I am the new rhythm of your heart

I am the hushed silence and stillness in your soul

I see your wants

And brace strong your dreams

I feel your need for clarification

So be one with peace

And be patient with me

For I am only trying my best to help you

To balance out and restore harmony within your life once again.
