Keeping An Oath
It’s Sunday night and here I sit,
Trying to engage my wit.
For seven years I’ve kept a vow.
Some words are needed, here and now.
Last minute words to share with all,
‘Cause bad parenting comes before a fall.
Near 400 straight Mondays, my thoughts have been due.
Sometimes, a Tuesday. Since I missed a few.
A new topic I search for every week.
It’s not easy, even for a parenting geek.
Sometimes life just gets in the way.
Mowing, reading - a graduation today.
And the baseball season finally began.
Everyone knows, I’m a big fan!
So here I sit, looking for a good theme.
Because today, I just ran out of steam.
Just remember your kids need you so much!
So always remember to love, praise and touch.
I hope this suffices in keeping my oath.
Encouraging parents, Moms and Dads, both!
