To marry “right”

I will teach my sons and daughters to marry right,

But before I do, I must find my guiding light,

To mother our children with love so bright,

In this journey, I seek Mrs. Right.

I ponder, who will my sons emulate,

And for my daughters, who will they await,

Will they find solace in the poet's verse,

Or seek wisdom from scriptures to rehearse?

Perhaps they'll see me, their father, with pride,

Their first superhero, a steadfast guide.

I'll impart wisdom, both subtle and sage,

To help them navigate life's every stage.

Son, I've known love's highs and its painful lows,

Patience, I'll tell him, as life ebbs and flows.

Daughter, I'll counsel, hold onto your worth,

For Mr. Right will come, from heaven or earth.

Before I teach, I must embody the light,

To father my children, to love Mrs. Right.

To nurture our home with kindness and grace,

I'll strive to be Mr. Right in every place.

For I'll marry right, setting an example bright,

Guiding my children towards love's purest sight.
