The Picture<\/strong><\/p>\n

The last couple of poem posts dealt with topics that were a little sad, so time to change things. This poem is about one of the happiest things in life; the love of a parent for their child. One of the most wonderful times I recall while raising my own kids was reading to them. This is my idea of a picture of perfect love.<\/p>\n

The Poem<\/strong><\/p>\n

This poem is a parent\u2019s love song to her\u00a0children. Sue loved her boys to pieces and was always very excited about their talents and accomplishments. I think her words of love and encouragement might be nice for them to hear, especially so close to their birthdays.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We Think You\u2019re Wonderful<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

We think you\u2019re wonderful, beautiful, a miracle<\/p>\n

We know you\u2019re heaven sent and it\u2019s evident<\/p>\n

You\u2019re not an accident<\/p>\n

You mean so much to me<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

No matter where you come from or what people say<\/p>\n

You have the ability to make your own way<\/p>\n

Something tells me that you have a real cool sense<\/p>\n

Of what you got to do that is of importance<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can work in a factory or in a zoo<\/p>\n

Study real hard and know what you want to do<\/p>\n

As long as you\u2019re happy and doing what you want to do<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all about being a successful you<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So try all the things you think you might like to do<\/p>\n

And read about jobs that other people do<\/p>\n

And talk to your neighbours, they might have a thing to say<\/p>\n

Then you can make wise choices when you come to that day<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Get an education so that you can know<\/p>\n

The ways that your mind can think and learn and grow<\/p>\n

And how other people may see things differently<\/p>\n

Knowledge is a resource like a branch on a tree<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

We think you\u2019re wonderful, beautiful, a miracle<\/p>\n

We know you\u2019re heaven sent and it\u2019s evident<\/p>\n

You\u2019re not an accident<\/p>\n

You mean so much to me<\/p>\n
