Dreams from my Father

My father used to tell me, son I want you to have

a good life, a beautiful wife,

kids and nice rides.

But unfortunately, I had

too much pride in my young life

and mess-up the dreams my dad had

but every time I remember.

When he used to pray

he always say “Dear Lord. I pray

that you keep my kids’ safe all day and everyday

but now every time I go to my dad’s grave,

I reminisce on

“the dreams from my Father.”
