Adrian



That's the name my parents gave me,
Adrian, that name that truly defines me.
A man full of desire to be the best he can,
Adrian a man determined on his own feet to stand,
Adrian the one who gave himself fully to God,
Adrian whose protected by the staff and his rod.
Adrian the one who wants to be a leader,
Adrian the one some call the preacher,
Adrian that's me who writes the poem(s)
Adrian the one whose words are so warm
Adrian the name of the poem? Yes it is my poem about me,
Adrian and no other name I'd like to be,
Adrian Yes, it is true, I too can tell no lie,
I'm proud to be Adrian, for the rest of my life.
