I looked at a photo of you today
When you were just a boy
When all you wanted to do was play
With your favourite toy
I turned the page and you’d matured
Your boyish looks were gone
Standing tall and self assured
No longer a cygnet, but a swan
Now you’ve grown into a man
You fill my heart with pride
You help anyone when you can
My love I cannot hide
So, carry on along your way
A path that is straight and true
Just remember everyday
I am so proud of you.

New Poetry by Tony Channing
Little River
by Dadfire
Let this coming of age story of a boy named Bean take you back to a simple time. Set in a small southern town in the 1960's, encircled by a river and gleaming white cotton fields.
