Respect For Life

What is happening to me

I'm turning into

quite the philosopher

No expert

just traveled life's road

and have discovered

a few secrets along the way

Glaring and really

quite obvious but everyday life

can make us blind

Firstly, taking care of family

providing for their well being

and at the same time

making sure they know they are

truly and completely loved

Being a male of the species

our role is that of provider

of life's necessities

but as important, if not more so

is creating a loving environment

To allow them to grow

to face the future with confidence

These things I have written

are certainly no great revelation

Since time began

the story has remained the same...

live, love and be happy

and treat fellow humans with respect!
