William's Story
A child came into our family.
A Gemini child.
Big Blue eyes and an enchanting smile
to lighten the heart of all.
Wrapped in a charm that only a small boy can bring
- William Alexander came into our lives.
An intuitive child with a keen intelligence
able to bring to a head a problem
best suited to produce the most comfort in his world.
A beguiling smile that insists to all
that here is a world abundant in magnificence,
just waiting to indulge him.
A child with the knowledge stored within,
of an ability to create all aspects of wealth.
A generous child with the gift of sharing
given as a reward for deeds great and small
performed in a time not of conscious memory.
He is yet too small,
to show the world the capability which is his to share.
His is the unconditional love of the child
not yet conscious of a world,
too ready in judgement.
Too grasping and greedy within a materialsitic society
to understand the full potential of this wonderful child.
He is here to show material wealth is no substitute
for a child of unconditional love.
He is here to soften the blows
that we,
with the maturing of the years allow to fall upon us.
He shows us joy
with the simple gesture of a hug.
He lifts the burdens from our heart
with a smile which transcends the conscious thought.
and rests within our soul.
He takes us back to the very core of beginning.,
as he takes his first stroke in the pool.
He shouts "I am swimming, I am swimming".
His joy reflects to us who we should really be.
A toy sword is placed in his small palm
and we see the warrior he has been and will become.
The magic of the moment parts the mists that we see,
ourselves - the warrior
on a quest of happiness
which only William can grant to us.
William is the reflection of who we are,
were and ever will be.
The joy of humankind.
