40 of me 2 of her

Poetic Dan



Many things don't last long or they may only come around once 

 

Like turning 40 and sharing my second with a beautiful soul 

 

For 2 years now we are blessed to see her grow 

 

As we are marking the same day then on this unique opportunity 

 

I'll mix it up and say happy 4:20 for this is a sign for me to be comfy 

 

Find my balance in a forever changing frantic world 

 

Blessed with a warrior wife, two boys and two girls 

 

As although we may of both been down divorced Roadside 

 

Our lanes collided and an unexpected new journey began 

 

Ten years ago I was a different man, start of a dream with a child in each hand 

 

As I now blow my next wish for a decade It was clear in the smoke 

 

This is my moment to become all of the who's I see 

 

No more hiding in the shadows without the crown of life 

 

As many don't ask for privilege to wear it so soon 

 

We carry on each day trying to just love what we do 

 

Kings and Queens with no titles but plenty of heart to share 

 

This is our stamp of approval to keep living life as you dare

    • Poetic Dan

      I hear you my friend and I've always been the same but now I have a big reason to see them a different way.

      But it is still definitely a struggle as no magic bubbles can make these things go away.

      Thanks for joining my journey
      Always appreciated

          Wonderful words DAn and the line
          "We carry on each day trying to just love what we do " says it all.
          Happy 40 and 2 to you both.
