PoemHunter - Kids forever

Words cannot justify what ye mean to me.
Giving you life and in return receiving a new dimension to living.
My heart was like a dormant volcano but upon your arrival burst into life.
Knowing attachments weaken people but for you I would go to hell because your happiness is priceless.

Remembering your first step, your first word or even you first bunch of hair,
Or when you wept, I heard and comforted you like a child’s teddy bear.

When times are tough, and life becomes rough I simple image you smiling.
The warmth you bring lets my heart sing, loving the gift of living.

Understanding life’s amazing ability of uniqueness;
Seeing both of you demonstrating, different types of kindness.

Like your guardian angle, my advice echo’s in your mind but it’s still your choice.
Letting you tangle, being cruel to be kind praying you’ll hear my voice.
So as you blossom more and more each day your innocence is being lost.
I would love to wrap you up, protecting you from harms way but realise learning comes at a cost.

When you fall I will be there helping you back onto your feet, when you cry I will be there drying those tears and when it’s cold and rainy I will be the shelter until it’s sunny.

Knowing kids are on loan so for all these found memoires I am truly glad,
Even when you’re grown up and your problems fall on deaf ears you can always call me dad.
