"Ariel's 10"

How proud we are of the man we call Dad

Never forgetting all the fun we've had

When we were all young going to "The Park"

And wanting to stay out with you till it got dark

Not caring what time it was or if we had school the next day

We all just wanted to be together when we went out to play

How proud we are of the man we call Dad

Even though when you get in your moods your kind of a Nag :)

We all received the message from your last conversation

But you like to bring things in to the next situation

It's funny because Berenice does the same

And Lurlyn acts just like you with no care or shame

Both Eboni's have your intellect and book smarts the same

And Shaun is pursuing a career that's going to lead him to fame

Ariel is an artist in his heart and soul

Tiffany has your attitude, it's fearful and cold

Unique and Kadijah is still growing up

But you know they will have years of shine and good luck

Omari is the only one that's always been by your side

And nothing you've taught him he has ever tried to hide

Alot of people can learn from the things that you do

Thank you for being a Father and a good man to those whom love you!
