Prouder than anyone Of whom he has become Admiration beyond imagination A parent's love Enduring all else Wanting to be needed Knowing when to stand aside A fate hard to accomplish Needing to be wanted As if the man has not emerged The life he lives Has room enough for all The thoughtfulness in his heart His caring ways New hobbies he shares With friends old and new The man shines through My son, my child You are a man, this is true To me you will always be That child in my arms Whom I loved from the start Click to purchase Print 58753 0 Other Author Poems As you say goodbye Don't Cry Good-Bye Recent Site Documents What type of Valentine do you wish to have?

I often write of them or their adventures through life. Inspiration comes in many forms, children in my house come by 6's. Therefore, much to write about. USA 4/8/2008 12:17:34 PM Deanna Dilley Angel, your poetry is so beautiful. Though I most likely will never children of my own, I still love reading works that others write about there children or children in general. Any of my poetry about having children are all pure fantasy in my world. (But that's another story within itself.) :) Deanna USA 4/5/2008 8:57:40 PM Prerna Chikersal lovely poem!
