He Is Part Ii

HE IS PART II



He is:
    My second born son,
    And is second to none.

He is:
    Much older and wiser
     Sometimes can act like a Meiser. 

He has:
   Gone on to learn a trade
    Yet, was still much dismayed.

He is:
    No longer quite so sullen
    And he hangs with his cousin.

He is:
    Still searching for a purpose in life,
    And has managed to find a wife.

He is:
    Gifted with words and art beyond measure
    Yet, he does not realize that he is a treasure.

He has: 
    Made his family, especially his mama, so proud,
    Hopefully, he sees that he is not one to be in a crowd.

He is:
    Aware that life will not always be serene,
    For he is now a United States Marine.
