Poem for Zachary
by Shelby M. Forrest


A Valentine for Zachary's Mom
Zachary is only eight years old,
His brother Ayden is four.
And little Cade is almost two.
He's last. There are no more.

Zachary's a very active boy
All sports he likes to do
He loves the game of basketball,
And football he likes, too.

Ayden and Cade both like to play
With their dog, with cars and trains.
They prefer, of course, to play outside,
In the sunshine or the rain

But Zachary likes to think ahead.
He wants more than to play
This poem he wants to give to his mom
A gift for Valentine's day.

He wants it to say "I Love You."
From the boys and Madison, too.
So let us say it loud and clear,
"DEAR MOM, WE ALL LOVE YOU."
