For my little redwood

I want to watch you grow.

From the top of your head to your little toe.

Your branches and roots and and all of your bark.
You make me think and you give me the spark.

I write for you and I write from the heart.
Something simple for you that you might call art.

I'll water you and feed you until you grow tall and strong.
I'll never hurt you for being in the wrong.

You have nothing to fear and no worries to be had.
Because I will do my best to never make you sad.

You inspire my light and shine through my dark.
From the moment I laid eyes on you and sat in the park.

My heart may be locked but you gave me the right shove.
I've never been more sure, and never been this in love.
