CHILDREN

A parent’s love for a child
Can’t be measured sold or bought
There’s nothing you would trade
That exists upon this earth

They bring you joy and happiness
They show you how much a heart can hurt
A parent loves their child
Especially when it’s not deserved

Our kids can do so many great things
Then something’s that are quite absurd
They make you proud and overwhelmed then
They can treat you just like a turd


The nights you spend awake in bed
Wondering just where the hell they are
Like the 1st time they stayed out all night
The day they bought their first car


A parent and child fit together
Like two hands inside a glove
They teach you pain and compassion
And just what is the limit of your love

The best way you can help them
Is to love them unconditionally
They will always come back to you
If they know how to be


Our children teach us so many joys
They are our gifts from God
It is when we embrace their youthfulness
That we get his loving approval nod!!!!.
