[bodytext] => You wonder what will happen And what the future may hold That’s the way with children By no one were we told No matter what the fear Or whether they’re hot or cold No matter that no one cheers Or what events unfold A parent is there for direction A gentle hand to guide the way We will give you protection Sometimes we’ll even play A parent’s job isn’t easy At times they must cause pain To the parents it’s not pleasing The purpose is for your gain They have to teach right from wrong And how to people you should be They really don’t have very long To teach these abilities Your welfare is what they work for To give you what you need For you, out their love they pour And hope their teachings take seed Which parents you get isn’t happenstance I believe that’s safe to assume And your children weren’t given you by chance For God knew them in the womb There is an intended purpose That is created with God’s own hand For each and every one of us A unique path He has planned He matches a parent and a child Because he knows you see Who’ll be meek and who’ll be wild And what the perfect match will be Parenthood is a winding road That never really ends Your children you can’t always hold On you they won’t always depend You make sure they know how To care for this life they lead And then you can take a bow Because you did succeed [comments] => 1 [counter] => 212 [topic] => 23 [informant] => ToriVeigh [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FamilyPoems )
