If I had a Son

If I had a Son

I’d be as happy as I am with my daughters.



The girls would go crazy - for sure.


He wouldn’t do drugs

He could try a cigarette or two

And know the effects of nicotine


He’d paint the world with words

Just as I do

And add colour to the lives of others


At one I’d teach him to write

Yes, at one

I’d let him hold the pencil tight

And scribble on paper and not on walls, haha


We’d go to the park together

I’d show him the beauty of nature

But, most of all

I’d take him to the beach,

We’d swim and take long walks

Collect sea shells

And wait till the sun sets.


He’d want to know where the seagulls went off to 

Each evening


They are migrating birds, I’d say

As if he knew it all the day he was born.


If I had a Son

He’d be a rising star

A wonderful human being

When a man he’d 

Be the perfect gentleman.
