Two conceived sons, didn’t think I would have even one

God answered my prayers, Now I live life through theirs

As I watched them crawl, I envisioned them playing ball

Carrying on my name, as I coached them in the great game

Make them learn what I wouldn’t, so they can be what I couldn’t

My knowledge passed two lad’s, take my good learn from my bad

I see potential in the eyes of these guys, their limits have no skies

Let me mold, nurture and care, take what your Dad has to share

You must be wishfully driven, waste not the talent you where given

Because life is unforgiving, there is no such thing as reliving

Don’t dream lives you could’ve lived, live lives you couldn’t dream

God gave you the talent you possess, so realize you have been blessed

And stand up to his test, because this is your quest, so do your best

You have my esteem, be all you can be, make me boast of my team

I love you two even though I scream, you make me so proud I beam

Your lives have just begun so forget the stars and reach for the sun

Give life a good run, never be outdone, two minds are better then none

So stick together as one, son to son, never let your friendship be undone

I’m here if you need me each one, you will never be shunned my sons

I’ll guide you both, as I monitor your growth, this is your Dad’s oath

So when you both become of age, remember I tried to be your sage

Forget what I said in times of rage, the truth is within this rhymed page

I lived my life to the left of your stage, this I did not for the wage

But for the pride I felt in all that you engaged

Love you both,

Dad
