Jason Conley Poet Rhyme

Cause and Affect

I try to teach them well
Lessons learned, wisdom I have gained
Guide them through a relevant tale
Help them via lessons I've attained
Preparing them to become good men
Molding them as best I can

It gets harder these days 
I'm not there to oversee
Make sure they don't stray
Provide them with what's needed
And know they are okay

Tis no easy thing
They need their father
Knowledge that I bring
I simply cannot falter

It's sad though
Still so much
Left to show

And soon
They will

GO
