Life With the Boys

Life with the boys 
Is chaotic at best
Organized destruction 
Challenges continue

The roughest I've met 
Except maybe dad
A boy for all boys
Fearless if that

A world of teaching 
And learning 
Yearning to explore
To be their own

Individual voices
Imaginative minds
Sensitive souls
Polite as their mom
