Poem Title:
Poem
This is dedicated to my sons It's 4 of y'all and only one me How did I get to be so lucky To have struck gold 4 times over Thank God for placing me into your lives He could have done this for anyone But he has blessed me As your earthly angel, your guardian, your dad This means that I'm dedicated to you When things are good, when things get rough I'll be here waiting to answer all of your questions As you grow from boys to men I may be a little stern at times Because I'll always want the best for you In other words, I want you guys To grow up to be greater than me I share a lot with you guys because You need to know that I'm not perfect I've made a lot of mistakes growing up As I share my life stories I've been through a lot For all of us, Not for you guys to focus on my mistakes But learn how I've dealt with them Also how I've bounced back from them When it's time to have THE TALK I promise to not pull any punches But to keep it 100 with you I'll teach you to love yourselves first, and to give your women the same respect that you'll give your mom I'll teach you guys how to recognize the woman in your life As a gift from GOD I want you guys to be Strong providers and protectors over your families Learn the word of GOD, live by it and love your families With the same heart that God loved the church Be men of Honor, Dignity, Loyalty, and Respect For you guys are products of GREATNESS Born Kings, Leaders, and one day You'll be Legends Leave a legacy behind for your children and your children's children to live by Don't do these things to make not only me proud But most important You owe this to yourselves To hear the almighty GOD say to you Well done my child, well done Linwood, Lovel, Cortland, and Caleb If GOD calls me home today Thanks to you all I have lived!
