Poem Artwork

My Son
Into manhood you venture
Be not limited by my shortcomings
Nor constrained by the dreams I left unlived
Turn instead toward the future that only you can create
Never to be deterred by misfortune or circumstance
But to rise victorious above the darkest of times
True to your heart and your loves

My Son
This is your time, your moment of TRUTH
The voice within is God’s gift to you
Cherish it and act on its guidance
Be not distracted by tempters and deceivers
Your light glows white hot, radiant and bright
For you are my Son
My collaboration with God

My Son
My precious, precious son
Go now and embrace forever
Looking ever forward never back
Take my love and my pride with you
Explore, discover, engage and love
Turning dreams into reality
Knowing the best of my is within you
My Son
My Pride, My Gift, My Legacy to the World
