Another Day

The start of a new day begins so early At least for this man so big so burly I awake like a truck hit me the night before Wishing I could have slept just and hour more But I need to provide for my family so I push through Someday I hope to relax and enjoy the morning dew But until my time comes I will work through this struggle So glad that I possess the ability to juggle I will end by stating I am not alone in this thought And as a father like many out there this lesson needs to be taught We have to show our children what to do and what to say But most important is to feel greatful for receiving another day.

Lovely poem Sean! The struggle for survival can take its toll on life but being grateful we are alive is something that should never cease, and definitely a lesson worth teaching to our offspring. Well written!
