Changing my ways for you

Poem Commentary

This can be interpreted many ways but I wrote this for my daughter and my newborn son. They are so innocent and I want to be there for them through life and beyond. I love you so much, my beautiful children!

Changing my ways for you

I look at the way
you look at me
and know that
I must change.
I am not
perfect-
yet you still look up to me.
For that  I must change-
I do not want you
to be how  I am now.
You are my guiding light-
your love wins
over the love
that I have for everything else.
You do not see flaws-
but  I feel them
when  I hurt you.
So for you
I am changing,
changing my ways,
my laws,
my habits
because I know you watch-
you see everything that I do,
so I am changing
for you
my love-
my guiding light,
my beautiful precious-
I am changing....

This poem. Is quite beautiful. I believe a lot of people would be able to relate to it.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
