Be Yourself, Son

Who are you, Son?
What breed of cat are you?
For what prize do you run?
What drum, you march to?
What song will you sing...
when your dreams do come true?
What gift will you bring
to the Lord when they do?
You tell me your heart
wants ordinary things.
You feel the late start
for what life should bring.
I want for you, too,...
all God has to give.
Can you wait and be true?...
In God's time-table live?
You are who you are,
a different breed of cat.
To God, you're a star;
He planned you like that.
Since you are God's man,
Satan's work is undone.
Now its all in God's plan,...
your testimony won.
I believe in your good
though I know you could slip
Your God knows it, too,...
has you in His sure grip.
Don't cry for the years
that seem wasted and poor.
Lay aside your fears.
Each day is your door.
You aren't really late;
you're all that you should be.
On this very date,...
be you... and be free.
'Though others scorn you
for your different ways,
stand tall, as a few do;
and time will bring praise.
It doesn't matter
whatever you've been,
if,...
your call, you seek after,
you'll be blessed...
with a grin!
G.F.R. Coykendall, February 6, 1988

| Thank you Christina, I wish I could say I had done this for my son when he was small when it would have done more good to his confidence. But, I was worried about him and did the best I knew how at the time. Gloria |
