My Young Prince
I look at him sleeping, Sleeping calm and peaceful, Peaceful he is not, Not quiet and relaxed, Relaxed but likes to terrorise, Terrorize the sister, Sister who is older than him. He is a wonder, Wonder to watch, Watch him crawl by, By how he likes to try, Try to stand and fall, Fall he dislikes, Dislikes when he cannot walk. He has learnt to talk, Talk by childish chatter, Chattering he loves, Loves to make noises, Noises that pronounce, Pronounce how young, Young and cute he is. He calls to me now, Now he is up and work starts, Start by making a meal, Meal that he chooses, Chooses to eat calmly, Calmly or disturb, Disturb he loves moreso porridge. Porridge they hate i wonder why, Why it is the most nutritious, Nutritious to eat and grow, Grow every step , Step by step daily, Daily and always, Always i pray for them.
