Dear Boys,


I lead you, I love you.

I instruct you, intervene for you.

I watch you, wondered by you.

I discipline you, disciple you.
I laugh with you, linger on your smiles.

I will pray for you, party to your successes.

I will see you fly, cushion your fall.

I will be proud, cheer your pursuits.

I will be unconditional, when your unkind.

I will raise you, release you.

When you're grown, I'll let you grow.

When you break my heart, it won't break our bond.

When we disagree, I will not show disgrace.

When you show rebellion, I will reinforce.

When you don't remember your value, I'll remind you.

I promise when I'm wrong, I will admit it.

I promise when you find your wife, I will celebrate your win.

I promise when you have children, I won't treat you like a child.

I promise to lend support, when you solicit.

I promise to keep my promises, promises I wanted promised.
