Poem Within a Poem

To a father there may Not be a greater joy than A child who emulates Maybe even idolizes his dad. With a heart pouring over With love my youngest boy Proudly states, “I have written a poem.” My heart soars and love overflows … His next words reconfirm what I suspected; he wants to be like dad He asked me to post it on Poetry Soup. The next lines are his as I beam … Kind, nice, Outgoing, and Funny this is How I live in this strange World. I live With a funny family always cheering me on I go to a big school always being great I have many friends Always being Awesome intelligent People, I go to a nice church always being kind I really like my life in this very strange world. I couldn’t have said it better Little man. A collaboration of Dad (60) and David (10) Eklund
