Poem Title:
Poem
It came as quite a shock as we watched them build their fort; when suddenly we realized we run an all inclusive resort. They get milk, juice, and snacks upon their requests; their clothes laid out neatly for them to get dressed. They watch their favorite shows as they sit there on the couch; don’t be too slow with the popcorn, they can really be a grouch. Their every need is met upon their beck and call; we wash their dishes, wash their clothes, no task too big or small. Summers are always filled with water sport activities; there’s kayaking, mud slides, and sand bar festivities. Lunch is always served between 11 and 1; followed by a luxury nap to prepare for more fun in the sun. There’s bikes and ziggles, woods to explore; and evening fires to roast a s’more. Personalized charcuterie boards, art and baking classes; mud baths, swimming, and outdoor reading classes. We laughed about the realization of this all inclusive we’ve been running; these kids have really got our number, so sly and so cunning. We tried to think of ways we could make their stay less pleasant; like add more chores and earn some money to buy themselves a present. We started making lists on how to shut this mission down; then realized real quick it would only make them frown. It always melts our hearts to see those smiles and laughter, it’s the love in their eyes that our hearts are after. We were put here to serve others, and that includes our kids; so we will run this all inclusive with a smile just as the good Lord bids. We are thankful and so blessed to have this opportunity to raise and love our children in such a safe community. Our all inclusive resort will continue to be filled with faith and love; and we will always send our thanks and prayers to the good Lord up above.
