You started the love

The day you were born

Your smile and your entrance

When you came into this world

Lightening McQueen was your favorite toy

Fit for the reigning Prince

Mom Mom's little boy

In a world of what if's and asking why

You'll always be my Smiley Guy

    This is such a sweet and heartfelt tribute! "You started the love the day you were born" – what a beautiful way to express the instant and unconditional love a parent feels. The final line, "You'll always be my Smiley Guy," is just perfect. It's a lovely and memorable piece.👌✨
