From A Mother Poem by Jordan Legaspi

Every morning you’re my glory
to manhood seeing you grow
the every achievement I know
from head to foot making you
from home to school everywhere glow
to be a man strong and bold

Each day will pass I know
somebody turn your world will be
reaching to its height none can say
but the horizon uncertain for sure
or sometimes gray or happy
to be a man strong and bold

Time will pass I know you will go
identity searching the way
but be aware trapped like a spider
caught in the web of your own innocence
or dead end for a running John
to be a man strong and bold

I can’t bear this oh my son
risk my life take you unharmed
ghost of your affairs hits my mind
come to an end crime free of your hand
but what else can you do for the story unfold
to be a man strong and bold

The sun sets now you’re home
doubled cross by the man of fortune
almost take my breath just to save you
but what can I do and don’t know where to go
son I may die but I’ve done my job for you
to be a man strong and bold

Time is up dropped to the ground
so sudden both gone and dead
just take the tape that holds you-unknown
cause blood to shed that’s cruelty
but I understand its morning again
for you to be a man strong and bold.
