I wrote this poem on the day of Luca, my grandson’s birth.
Poem for Luca Daniel Milborrow
16 August's cradle holds a treasure so dear,
Luca Milborrow, a grandchild, a radiant light and clear.
A great-grandchild, a fresh beginning's embrace,
His life's canvas painted with Ma Eva’s smile and grace.
May wisdom's gentle streams guide his way,
Luca's gifts and talents twinkle like stars above,
And his heart brimming with boundless love.
Luca’s life, a blessing with laughter's sweet embrace,
His name whispered in the world's ear,
A melody of hope, tender and sincere.
With each dawn's rise, his purpose will unfold,
A beacon of hope, a tale to be told.
Blessed be Luca to bring light to each day,
And his parents’ love, a guide to a brighter day.
