Becoming a man
Charles Perreira 1966 (Boston)
One day soon I'll become a man no longer a small boy holding out my hand ..I'll be in this world all of my own trying to convince myself that I'm full grown ...I know a man must try to be strong I pray to the Lord not to do wrong ..I'm going to be that good man I'm sure of that I'm poogoing to be that man who grew to her his father's hat..
