THE PARENT :: Rach29 :: Original Poetry

THE PARENT

As I watch them grow I grow and my love grows.

When they're sad I'm sad.

I teach them and they teach me.

I try to be gentle with my actions and words.

But Lord knows it's hard.

For we are all his children.

We have to show them how to express love, anger and fear.

For they will grow up and have to face the world.

So we teach them all we know and listen just as well.

Tho they'll never be perfect, they'll know right from wrong.

Most importantly they'll know they can always count on you the parent.
