Pearlescent Poems # 4: Azure Adolescence

in #poetry8 years ago (edited)

My son has just arrived! My joy and vitality.


A blessing Marcello is, such labor ends in finality.
Harmony's a big sister now, sweet and kind to her sibling

The whole experience is so new for us, no distractions or dull quibbling

A role model for my son, without a doubt I must strive


A male leader, a father figure, a consoling soul's within my drive
Disappointment, I must avoid, yet failure is much inevitable

Mistakes will be made, but the outcome's more incredible

Everything's a learning process, I take serious this life at hand


Cradling his precious body, demands me to understand
Fragility, parent-dependent, these words written, have only surface grazed

Just be there, consistent, loving, dedicated, no need for praise

I look back at my childhood from the depths of my adult essence


How I move forward now, it's up to me if it adds or lessens
I admire at my son's beauty, his Azure Adolescence

Every decision from here on counts, it's a sure Adult Lesson...

Thank you for reading my poem in its entirety. Just wrote it the day after my son was born. Marcello was born 9:21 am September 27th Tuesday. Thank you all for all of your support. It feels great to be a father of two children now.

Next post coming soon

Love the gif of you two break dancing! What a blessing, you are without a doubt a great father and a wonderful poet. Much love.

Thank you, I'm glad you like the gif. I also liked the breakdancing one, but that is not me and my son, my son is only 3days old. I used that particular gif from giphy.com
I strive to be the best I can be in all things, thank you for your kind words and appreciation. I'm grateful

Congrats~Bless

Oh man! Congrats, my bro! He's one lucky little fella having a dad as talented and kool as you! A beautiful, intelligent little gem has been gifted to your family, maximum blessings from me to you!

Keep those poetic treasures flowing and I look forward very much to seeing more of you and the fam in the future!

Much love, @verbal-d...

Thank you very much for your reply and kind words. We send you also the best of blessings to you and your loved ones. I shall indeed keep the flow of emotion traveling openly.
It's nothing but love

Congratulations! Sending much of love and blessings to the new born baby boy. I hope you are having a wonderful time with your family! Harmony is going to be an awesome big sister

Thank you also for your congratulations to us and blessings. It means a lot. I shall pass that positivity to Marcello and Harmony. When Harmony met Marcello for the first time she was so kind and excited. She shouted Look! Baby Brother Baby Brother!
It was an amazing moment :)

Hey @verbal-d congratulations on that beautiful gift you have recieved there !! Nice touching post !! Word my friend !!

Thank you @gomeravibz I am grateful for your response. You couldn't be more correct. Indeed I do have a beautiful gift and it will be such an amazing experience watching him grow stronger faster and taller as the days pass. He came out heavier and lengthier than harmony so I'm sure he will catch up to her size in the next year and a half or two. :)

Yes i am sure he will, us little boys grow up quick eh?? I hope you are sleeping ok ???; - ))))) So i came by to leave you the link to my latest post and recording, hope you dig it and feel the flow as ever !!

Thanks for the link I will let you know my feedback and yes I'm sleeping pretty well so far :)

Ok cool @verbal-d !! I think i may have over done the mp3 compression a little, but I need it to load quick on youtube, its 4 min long !! I am glad you are managing to sleep a little anyway !! look forward to you coming back !!

I'll try and check it out tonight for sure. And yeah gotta get as much sleep as possible and prepare my posts ahead of time to keep things flowing. But all is good and I'll let you know what I think.

Congratulations Bro, i wish you the best of luck and you're son is soooooo sweeeet!!!
