Special poem for November 12

I haven't posted any poems this month because a friend and I have been doing a "dialogue poem", so I only own half of it and the half doesn't make much sense on it's own. But today is my son's first (anniversary of his) birthday, so I wrote an additional poem today for him.

For Thomas

I remember the day you were born
I was full of pain
And full of fear
And full of love
And full of joy

Now a year has passed
And I don’t remember
The pain
Or the fear
But I do remember
The love
And the joy

Because every day
The pain decreased
The fear faded
But the love still grows
And the joys multiply
