Love Poem: My Children

My Children

My children are my life
My reason to survive
They are each so distinct
And very special to me;
Kyle who is the youngest
I will forever cherish
His laughter and his smile,
Is contagious after a while;
Kassandra, my little girly
She is just too pretty
And with the brains to go with
Her beauty can’t be missed;
Michael, the oldest of mine
Came along just in time
He possesses intelligence, 
That is rare at first glance
But once he starts to tell all
He will baffle your mind with awe;
Little David, who at the age of eight
Was placed upon my life’s’ plate
A mix of emotions is he
A sense of humor which is unique
A heart that is full of feeling
But there is a wall he keeps building;
Little Christina was only nine
When we met the first time
So angelic and sweet she was,  
Definitely not hard to love
Today she is basically the same
Except when hormones come to play;
And Drake, although not mine
I will love for all time
To me he is the same
As the ones that I have named;
These are my children, 
Each special to me
They are my life
And my responsibility
I’ve given an oath
And will do my best
To make sure they will be raised
To be better than the rest
