Boys

When they are little they make such a mess Then they get big and cause such stress Why do we love them so much one might ask Because they love us and need us I guess is the task They are bright and playful and so much fun It is like spending your day in the sun Always changing and learning something new Time fly by as they do what they do From new born to adult hood in a blink of a eye Like watching the clouds fill the sky What will they become when they are grown What seeds will flower once they are sown Will they be okay alone out there Your heart will despair You will teach them all that you know and can Then you will let them be a man It is our job as mothers to cry and scream It is our hopes and our dreams To see our little boys grow to perfection Under our loving protection But sometimes I wonder if I can pass this test All I can do is hope for the best My boys are half way up the ladder now But some times I wonder if I will know how To let them go into this big world alone I just hope they remember what they have been shone Since the day I brought them home with tears in my eyes My Darin boys have made me sigh
