My Boys


They walk into the room with grins Of excitement and happiness; And all that’s bad in the world Meets the end and everything is alright: Thus I go sweep them off their feet Which leads them to giggle. One boy is four, one boy is two, Had my hands full, that nameless bliss Which shows up in every moment with them Or softly dulls o’er their eyes as they sleep Where thoughts are gone How I love when they sleep, how I love to see them peaceful And on that night and o’er that day So their lives go on, so I will be there to watch over them The smiles that win my heart, the love in their eyes But tell of nights spent watching movies A time for Cole and Lane at their house A time for bonding with my boys

I absolutely adore my two young cousins, so I wrote a poem about them.
