My kids

What are the memories that pop into your mind
Share them with your children as the day falls asleep
Around the campfire, to entertain on cheap
But enrichment power of knowing your past find

They will enjoy questions about your own parents
How they shaped your future, how badly you behaved
Did your mommy cuddle, did your daddy help shave
What technology loomed to savour your merit

Teach them about values in your story telling
To have a happy life, and enjoy being kids
Have fun staying younger, growing up will bring skids

Moments passed with my kids are priceless modelling
The loving distraction that warrant my true self
Can't fake this real passion, they belong on top shelf
