On the day that you were born,
I know the angels cried,
To send away from them to me,
A most wonderful and delightful child.
For you have brought
Such joy to me,
And for this
I am so grateful.
But I know they miss you, son,
From around the Master's table.
I feel honored and blessed this day
To have you by my side,
For you, my son, my gift from God,
Have brought to me such peace and joy.
I feel I must confide,
My son, I can't thank God enough.

I think poem has a meaning about the unconditional love a father has for his son. It's also saying that he will always be there for his son whenever he needs his dad.
