The Things My Children Know
By Cosmos Uruuva

The things my children know,
May seem small to you.
But the things my children know,
Are important and true.

Loyalty and honour,
Pain and regret.
The joys of a big family,
These things they'll never forget.

Manners and politeness,
The importance of love.
Intellect and wisdom,
And respect of Those above.

Kindness and tolerance,
Caring and compassion,
Consideration and happiness.
And a sense of fashion.

The things my children know,
I have taught some.
But the things my children know,
They have taught more.

Alazuel,
The most stubborn of all.
I admire and respect you so,
Although you're not too tall.

Elendar,
The eloquent and silent.
Soft spoken and intellectual,
Working always towards betterment.

Jyotsana,
Perky and alive.
Too much like her mother,
Except for her drive.

Nitro,
Her imagination runs wild.
Flying away on dragons,
The heart of a child.

Orncalen,
Nature's heart.
He loves all that he meets,
And turns everything into art.

Shayne,
The strongest of mine.
He is devoted to my honour,
The soul of the Divine.

Treebeard,
A fighting mage to be sure.
His humour is amazing,
And his passion is pure.

Vindica,
The most seductive of all!
Making men swoon as she passes,
A favorite of everyone's, although she is small.

These are the children I love,
These are the children I've raised.
They love me,
Even though I might yell a bit too much,
Or tell them what to do.
But what mother hasn't done this,
Ever since those terrible twos?

I'll keep trying to make their lives perfect,
Even as the grandchildren come.
I love each and every one of my babies,
And I cherish the things I've learned.

Okay! *glee* I love this poem! I also love all of my other Children, the
ones that have married into my family *prod Sorley, Ashleigh, and
soon-to-be Nwalya* I also love my sisters and brothers, my half-sister
and half-brother (*tickles Saffire and Vorn*), my parents, and my
GGrampa Darktalon, and all of my wacky cousins, nephews, nieces, aunts,
uncles, great aunts, great uncles, etc. etc... and my beautiful
grandbabies! *twirl Sharlyn!* Oh! And I lurve the godfather to all muh
children *kicks Mercury in the shin* Oh! And I love Mother Demeter! And
Rikar, Jancis, Liliah, Shanto, Dannath, Maklyr, Elspie, erm.. erm..
*mutter* all the Divas, all of the Winterharts.. I lurves everyone in
the Druids! And I lurve T. Pudgy Crab! Okay! Be good everyone!

The very long winded and insanely giddy because she's very tired at the
moment,
Cosmos Winterhart-Uruuva

P.S. And Prenumbra's okay too! And Estach really DOES want to be a Diva!
He does, he does, he does!
