Sometimes I wonder what I can teach my son.
I can’t even help him with his homework anymore.
Then, when I think he’s not listening,
I realize he’s picked up my bad habits.
Make me aware of my impact.
Let me see through Your Jeweler’s glass
the gem I will be and not the rough edges and flaws.
Count to ten for me before
I open my craw with a cutting comment.
Help me apply the Golden Rule,
especially in my own home,
starting from the heart and spreading exponentially.
Give me good qualities and soothing words,
and bless me with a legacy of kindness.
