A Father’s Worry

Published on 29 June 2022 at 03:53

I look at my kids, with tears in my eyes…

Can I really do the best for these little guys?

How long will they listen to me just because?

Will they still listen when they see my flaws?

Can I do what my parents achieved?

With these questions it’s hard to be relieved

 

All I want is for them to smile

That can happen if I’m present for awhile

For these miracles I want a comfy lifestyle

Time to see if I can go that mile

 

Outside noise doesn’t affect me

I decide if I’m the Dad I choose to be

My father before me casts a shadow

But his teachings are what I shall borrow

My mother, to this day, still holds my hand

Their influence is what I will expand

 

These are not tears of sadness or joy

All of it is love, that’s what I’ll employ

The plan is clear, I know my ploy

I will do anything for my girls and my boy
