Good looking boy Tate, and your sentiments here are awesome. Who should be jealous of whom my friend, as I wish that I could own that honouring to have a son. To own that experience that has at this time of my life evade me. I least i can be happy for my friend and hope rises through that torch passed on. I wish him well and know he has a firm foundation in which to start having Tate Morgan, as a Father.
Touching, sentimental piece.. being a father of two boys, one younger, and another (man) who is now on his own.. I can really relate to this wonderful tease of words. I see the wonder of my oldest son, reflected back in my younger son.. My oldest son returns home often, and ALWAYS takes the opportunity to share some special time with his little brother.. It makes my heart swell with pride to see my oldest, love and care for his brother. Thank You for adding this reflection to my busy day...
I have three of them, Tate, so I know the joy of which you speak. When young, I would admit to learning little, if anything, from my dad, but now in later years, your statement "A boy will always remember the lessons" rings so very true.
Some people don't realize the importance of a male role in a boy's life. But you unmistakably do. Those wonderful values will forever reside in his mind and heart to guide him. Beautiful.
My Son
A Poem by Tate Morgan
Has great feelings mixed with sadness, and kindness of a young child. The concepts of this poem is far greater than what one would think. The image is clear-- crystal.
Tate Morgan knows his family's and even better he knows the right words to bring them all together.
I'm glad I came to read this one. This is in perfect meter and does the poem a charm too! I only wish you continue writing in meter and keep the ancient spirit of poetry alive. :) A well deserved 100!
