An ornament-inspired poem

Lloyd Rogers lamb ornament

Lloyd Rogers of Tyrone penned a poem about his favorite ornament -- a little lamb that commemorates the birth of his now 12-year-old daughter. Rogers, who was 33 when his little girl was born, said he was thrilled to become a dad.

I made one special prayer

with all the faith I had.

I wanted just one thing that year.

That was to finally become a Dad.

I'd been given many presents,

all wrapped with ribbons and lace.

But this gift was given by God,

and adorned with His grace.

It's just a little lamb,

One can clearly see.

But 33 years ago,

It changed the world for me.

My little girl is 12 now,

and I'm such a proud Dad.

I'll always remember Christmas in 2011,

The best I've ever had.

Starting at /week.
