This poem speaks of the love I have for my parents and the pride I have in being their son.

                                                  Born of a Queen,

                                      learned to be a man by a King.

                                                 raised to be a star,

                                      for doing right never to stray far.

                                             Raised to strive for first

                                                   but be gracious

                                         if I find myself second best.

                                                  My roots run deep

                                               and are spread wide.

                                        My blood is of the riches form.

                                      Expected of me are great things,

                                            so I must meet or exceed

                                                        these things

                                         to be worthy of being the son

                                              of a King and a Queen!

What a beautiful way to honor your parents! My mother is an absolute saint for saving the finances and making sure that each of us turned out all right. My father was a great guy, a great friend to everyone, a spendthrift, and taught me how not to live my life.
