Sparky Parents
I will tell you this, from me to you,
To raise good children all that you need do,
Is be good parents, be shining bright,
The spark of their dreams; the light of their lives.
*
While they are young and when everything’s new,
Be their best friend and they also with you,
For childhood is fleeting, and before very long,
They will have departed the nest, and left you alone,
*
So pull up a blanket, lay thunder the stars,
And dream both together of pipes, cloaks and cars.
