Dear son,
You are young right now,
And there is so much for you to learn
I have so much to teach you
Like things my father never told me
But you are growing fast
Faster than I actually anticipated
Yesterday was dry
But now its petrichor
Sometimes I wonder if u would understand
If I said those things now
Or should I wait a bit longer
What if its too late when I finally say it
Yesterday you said nothing
Today you asked 457questions
You are growing fast
And I need to know the right time
But since I don't know how to say this
I will just live it
That as you grow
You may watch and emulate
That way I will have taught you
I will have showed you the way by walking it
And when the right time comes
It will only be a brush over
But my son
If the time comes,
And at that moment in time
You find me rested with my ancestors
Just know that I loved you
And yes I am proud of you
And the man you have become
Kindly consult your other Father
He is my guide even now
Never let his word fall
Listen keenly while he speaks
His Holy book is a guide
But if by then I will be
I will teach you all I can
And I will stand by you
I will gladly walk you down
As your choice gets acknowledged
Just like I did with your mother
We would have been better parents
But that was the best we could do
And I hope our best was enough
My son
Learn to respect everyone
Apologize when you err
Have an attitude of gratitude
Complement the good things
Appreciate every effort
And pray everyday
And son,
Take care of your mom for me
