My son is doing a poetry project at school and I was asked by his teacher to help with it, but unfortunately I was not able to at the time. However, in the spirit of things, I share a poem that I wrote for my two sons a few years ago..
A Mother's Promise
I feel your small hand
clasped in mine
tight and trusting
that I will lead you
upon life's path
sure and true
but I cannot promise
where it will take you
only that..
for as long as I am able
I will watch over you
and love you
keeping your travels
along life's unpredictable road
as smooth and calm as I can
shield you from pain and
sorrow along your way
share your moments of joy
and laughter
and show you how to love...
so that the light that shines
in your eyes
and glows in your heart
will never be dimmed by
the tribulations of your journey
but keep you strong and
nurture you as you grow
this I promise....
