Poetry: My son

Beyond the pane, the elements groan
The wind emits a climatic moan
Beside me here, my son does sleep
Oblivious to the darkness' creep

I glance at him now, a work of art
A joy to behold from the very start
No frown or scowl, a boy at peace
He lies so silent in his slumber's fleece

Rushing headlong, the mankind race
The future before us sets a challenging pace
Cannot be avoided, it's coming for sure
A search for the truth, a freedom so pure

What beholds for my precious son
Will he fill his life with distance run
One thing for sure, there is no regret
This time with my child I shall never forget

    and looked him in the eyes;
    I noticed how he's changing so
    and leaps from size to size.
    His little

    "You're giving up all your rights,
    you know that, don't you dear"?
    I nodded my head yes
    holding back a tear.

    when needed son come take my hand,
