My Son Kenneths' Birthday Present 2022

My Son Kenneths’ Birthday Present 2022 I can't paint you a pretty picture I can't give you a lot of cash But I hope what mommy gives you will forever always last I can't recall the color, the one you love the best But I do recall some good times and I am sure there's plenty left I can tell you some funny jokes and the rules to your daddy’s game But unless he’s here to speak to them they really are not the same I can tell you about your childhood and some stunts you/they tried to pool I can remind you of the feelings when you realized we/they were/weren't’ fools And I hope what mommy gives you will forever always last Although they made you change your name to have a place to live Maybe in reality that’s all they had to give But now that you became a man, and learned a lot alone I hope you please remember that your never far from home.
