Father And Son
Hey there, I'm OK I just popped in to here you say "Love you, going out to play" Another day to dream away
Now, now, don't you frown Don't let a cut knee get you down There, there, the pains all gone Five thousand bear hugs before dawn
Ha, ha, watch that smile You know you've got me all the while It has me run that extra mile You wear your charms in breathless style
Hey lad, come and see Let us get down on bended knee Look out as far as you can see This world was made for you and me
Wow boy, you've grown so much since last I can't keep up, you run too fast My father told me in the past These very words that I just cast
Page two, three and four Five six and twenty thousand more We never know just what's in store In story books, well that's for sure
Night, night, you sleep tight You know I'm never out of sight And when you wake in morning light We'll play once more into the night
By, bye, don't you cry Another weekend past us by I must have grit here in my eye Lets hope these five days will just fly
Hey there, I'm OK Another week to fade away

To My Two Sons
Little chips of God
Spirits shining bright
Without the weight of years
You seem to dwell in light
I watch
by Cindy Nemitz
The Little One
With yearning in his eyes
The little one looked up to his dad
He longed for no more good byes
To him the distance makes
Arriving from different countries
Each trying in his own way
Traversing the ropes, learning the language
To understand
The little boy walks behind his father,
both dressed in coat and boots,
for it was a cold, snowy night.
The little boy
by Shaheen Darr
Born never to be accepted by you
Your ideals too lofty for a kid like me
I would climb, and then fall right down again
Hoping
