Learning Delights
Illumination of wondrous delight
Enlightening moments midst wisdom flight…
They commenced by my parents’ teaching light.
Vivid kindergarten nursery rhymes
Became functional with my Mother’s chimes
As Dad reinforced in glad counting times.
Grader’s home works became partnership bliss
Since Mom’s project-aids I never did miss
With Father’s assistance midst “that or this.”
Learning in high school midst challenges’ pain
Turned to triumph with lessons I did gain
Since parents support prevailed of love*-reign.
Reminiscing “learning is fun” at home
I longed for safe educational dome
Where truth around Mom and Dad I did roam.
Grateful to God for fruitful learning zest
I commend parental guidance as best
Inside concern, comfort compassion’s nest
Now, faced with special child’s tutorial spree
My heart rejoices midst mentoring glee
Beholding his milestones along faith’s key.
*Proverbs 3:11-12 My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction: For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
