A nice look into your life. It looks like the most important part of your life started when you got marries. You also give a very important piece of advice in the last stanza.

    Getting married was amazing, but having kids is life changing. I can't imagine life without my family. Thank you for this wonderful review. :)

Ciao mystery poet, you have 6 votes now!

Your poem was the first I read and in 4 paragraphs you explain clearly what life means to you.

There was one entry and it is as long as an Egyptian papyrus. ( eyes rolling)

Reading your words made me feel how empty my life is ..no husband , no partners ,no family , no kids .. my parents gone and now I'm alone.

One should have the opportunity to live one's life a second time around.

That said,

I had many pets and I nursed many sick stays and found forever homes for them .. that made me very happy.. but off late, I do feel a tug at the heart when I see a family.

Keep safe!

I really do love the tone of this poem, because I am very much a family man, and like yourself, it's all about the children, the most valuable gifts we have. This love came through so strongly in your verse. Thanks for sharing. Good luck in the contest.

Excellent entry for the This Is My Life! writing prompt contest.

You expressed your love for your children in a clear manner.

A great story in its entirety, though brief, compelling in structure and presentation. .

Good luck in the contest.

It is so true that the nuclear family is the bedrock of civilized society and a good life. You are very blessed to have a family to love and to love you. The creation of a new family unit is indeed a blessed event that never stops unrolling. Very nice poem.

Good poem for the prompt entry. Your very clearly set forth the progression from you and your husband becoming a we (nice phrasing by the way), to cherishing your children and focusing as the top priority your family. Well done.
