Footprints poem

Monday, June 22, 2009

Due to the economic woes of the present time this Father's Day gifting was a collection of handmade items by my son and myself. Truly unfortunate for my hubs because at this point he really deserves a new Jaguar or something of that stature! Below is a framed poem that my son did in school for "daddy" which was just too heartwarming for me not to share...


Footprints

"Walk a little slower Daddy" said a child so small,
"I'm following in your footsteps and I don't want to fall.

Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For you are leading me.

Someday when I'm all grown up,
You're what I want to be;
Then I will have a little child
Who'll want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right,
And know that I was true,
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For I must follow you."
