To My Unborn Child "Poetry" by Hidentity(m): 1:31am On Sep 30, 2014
Strange it may seem that I set to write
To enlighten you and ensure all is right
Joy fills my heart even with the mysteries of time
Passion for you has no worth, though I have no dime

Child, listen to the silent whispers of my heart
And from the lessons of my travails do not depart
Child, from within heed to my guidance
To the world you intend to build, use it as a fragrance

Know it, that life is a battle field
But easy does it, you need not speed
Learn from your father the pride in humility
And rely not solely on your ability

Child, overlook people’s fault
But reward all around you for their efforts
It will work for you; I mean the right words
For to win the battle of life you need no sword

Child, listen to the words of the wise
And betray no man if you must rise
Unveil and expunge stains blotted in deals
With this, in your castle shall live peace

The one who will mother you, I know not
The colt upon which you shall lay, I’ve not bought
Your gender cannot limit you in any field of life
For with determination, you can rule the sky

The name of your knights thou must not blot
The downfall of any man thou shall not plot
Adorn everyone around you with value
And to you long life shall accrue

Run not through the crooked boulevards
Nor go through the ill-fated backyards
Choose associates by disposition
Your opinion should be bought by no man through imposition

My child, the best of things cannot be seen by the eyes
For any step you have to take, inform your mind
Come, play your part and make a change.
My unborn child; tomorrow’s sage.
