My son
Lenamarie Clark 1981 (Indianapolis,Indiana)
"My son"
Son you came from my heart from the start your won my heart.
From changing diapers from sending you to school many sick days but you pulled through.
Now a man a hansom man at that and that's a fact,My goofy x-man,to a mamas boy who calls me mommy,
where some day I feel like I'm a zombie...
Through many ups and down son you are my favorite clown hands down.
Out I go and so I shout
Here's to my military son
shine on and on be who you want to be, be proud so I say out loud I got you since the day you were born.
I sworn you in to this world and now you are son,keep me in your prayers far away or not don't for get who helped made your success it was all for the best yes.
-Lenamarie Clark
