A boy standing tall
growing into a man
heart
soul
learning of life
seeing things
different than before
remember this
hear well my words
many many things will you see
many stones
will mark your path
and fall you may
and get up you will
for I see in you
greatness
the will of a warrior
the
strength
of
a
man
