to my son

As you work your maze

Days are years

I pray that on the balance

Joy outweighs tear

Fears be valid guideposts

help navigate the way

That grays are something you can grasp

In rainbows of your days

And when you reach the marshland

Enveloped by haze

The inner voice will guide you

Where darkness meets day

As you emerge victorious

Embattled arms raise

Embracing concepts valiant

For this, for you, I pray.
