Jesse Poem by James Casey

Jesse

My son is going to marry
He's found his dream come true
He doesn't want to tarry
He knows just what to do

What is there I can say
Because he's left the nest
To help him through these days
For he deserves the best

Keep fresh this love you have
Work hard to keep it new
Don't be mean and cold
Let your love come shining through

Give that girl all she needs
Overlook her faults
With kisses and good deeds
Never let there be any doubts

Of how very much you care
And want her for your wife
That you always want her near
Throughout you're married life

So, son, go and please be happy
Before I start to cry
I'll try and stay just misty
But please don't ask me why
