Walk with Me...

We all went out for a walk the other day. Yes I managed to drag two teenagers out for an afternoon out. It was lovely to spend some time together in between the huffs and puffs, and classic teenage grunts. They were a bit reluctant because I had prized them away from their gadgets and favourite things to spend time with mum. 'The fresh air will do you good' I said, they look at me as if to say they would rather suck vintage mouldy pickled eggs.

I think they secretly enjoyed it, I know I'm loved as they tell me every day. It is hard though to organise days out in the school holidays especially at this age as they like to do their own thing now and I totally understand. When they were little I could just scoop them up, pop them in the car and take them everywhere. The thing is that now I suppose I can just take myself off and have a bit of independence but I like my time with my boys. My eldest will go as he loves have a walk but I don't believe in making them do anything they don't want to, I was going my own way at their age but you forget don't you?

This gave me my inspiration for my verse today, I hope you enjoy it..........


Walk with Me

Walk with me boys
just now and again
Before you become older
turn into young men

Walk with me lads 
it's not really a chore
The locations I choose though
maybe a bore

Walk with me chaps
it's good for us you know
Before my knees give in
and I'm living in a bungalow

Walk with me my son's
it's time I enjoy
Time is so precious
no need to be coy

Walk with me guys
for soon you'll fly the nest
I can then stop annoying you
yes, finally a rest

Walk with me now
as you make me so proud
One of you so quiet 
the other one SO LOUD

Walk with me you two
as memories are made
These moments remembered
life's footprints are laid


Family can mean good friends and lovers too. So enjoy your family time in which ever way you spend it. Make the most of it as family time is precious time.
