A Tribute To My Children
A tribute to my grandchildren
Oh, let me remember the things I hold dear
until from my mind they will disappear
when I won't know why or I won't know when
from where I came or where I'm bound
for I know I must keep my feet on the ground
to channel my life so I can see fit
until that time when I can do no more
but let it be known that I tried to succeed
as a mother, grandmother in your time of need
So think of your children and guide them well
to a path that they choose where no peril befalls
they will choose their crossroad
when that day will come
that will alter their lives as all crossroads have done
and the process continues to go on and on
In the end judge me not for my disciplined way
but as a result of the person you are today
