POPULAR POEMS ABOUT SON
Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
"Here the hangman stops his cart:
Now the best of friends must part.
Fare you well, for ill fare I:
Live, lads, and I will die.
Farewell, thou child of my right hand, and joy;
My sin was too much hope of thee, lov'd boy.
Seven years thou'wert lent to me, and I thee pay,
Exacted by thy fate, on the just day.
The answer to do you love me isn't, I married you, didn't I?
Or, Can't we discuss this after the ballgame is through?
It isn't, Well that all depends on what you mean by 'love'.
Or even, Come to bed and I'll prove that I do.
Although I work, and seldom cease,
At Dumas pere and Dumas fils,
Alas, I cannot make me care
BID a strong ghost stand at the head
That my Michael may sleep sound,
Nor cry, nor turn in the bed
Till his morning meal come round;
Dear son, I want you to know
Day after day, as you grow
Lose your fears, not your confidence
Make meaning of, your existence
Say goodbye, to every worry
Live life king size and be carefree
These are words, that may be few
But to live well, they will guide you
I love you
2) You are the reason
For me to breathe
Even though you give me
Reasons to seethe
You are the reason
For me to enjoy
For you will always be
My naughty little boy
The skies above so blue
How happy you make me
I cannot express
Without you my life
Would be worthless
I love you
4) You are the one
I cannot bear to lose
Without you life would be
An ocean of blues
You are the person
I cannot live life without
That much I know
Without any doubt
The entire universe
Without you life would be
Nothing less than a curse
I love you son
5) Day by day as you grow
There is something I want you to know
For you are the one I love a lot
I will always be by your side
In your actions, I will take pride
As you progress and move ahead
I love you
6) From the day I held you
In my palm
On me you wielded
Your irresistible charm
From the day I rocked you
You ensnared me
In your loving trap
The day you addressed
Me as daddy
I jumped around the house
I was so happy
The fact that you are
My loving son
Has made every regret
Come undone
I love you
7) When you will be
A charismatic leader
When you will create
An impressive future
When you will become
A dashing millionaire
Yielding your charms
As a debonair
When you will be named
Man of the Year
My eye will lose
A precious tear
8) The happiest moments of my life
I owe to you entirely
So sad and lonely
The best memories of my life
Will always bear your name
For after you were born
My life was never the same
I love you son
9) There is nothing in this world
That I badly want
For I already have something
That I can proudly flaunt
A son like you along with
The gift of being a father
Nothing else in this world
Can make my life better
I love you
10) There are so many emotions
That I want to express
For the way in which
There are so many metaphors
That I want to apply
To our relationship which I will
Cherish until I die
I love you
Full of hopes and dreams
You are my treasure chest
Amongst everyone out there
You are the very best
Full of laughs and cheer
You are my gift box
With your contagious smile
You help me to detox
Full of love and affection
You are my biggest reward
For giving me a son like you
I will always thank the Lord
I love you
To your very last
Until the present
All the way from the past
I have cherished
Every bit of your journey
Feeling blessed to have been
Given this opportunity
Even the future I know
Will be equally bright
With a son like you
Everything will be right
I love you
I cannot stop ranting
About your antics
So cute and loving
I cannot stop pinning
Quotes about sons
That are worth reading
I cannot stop sharing
Pictures of you
So endearing
For I am obsessed
With you, dear son
You are the reason
My life is so fun
I love you
14) Today we want to
Say something
We love you for just about
Everything
From all your tantrums
To each antic
Seeing you grow
Has been fantastic
From your quirky traits
To your funny ways
Son, we fondly remember
Your childhood days
We love you
15) Now I know
The real reason
Why you were born
My dear son
It is because we were
Destined to be happy
And live life as
A perfect family
We love you
16) When I sit back
To relax in the patio
Which I realize and know
That life is good because
I have you in it
For this I need to thank
God to every bit
Been bestowed on me
I love you
17) Being parents to a son like you
Is never cumbersome, never a chore
It is never a hassle, never a problem
It is never tiring, never a bore
Being parents to a son like you
Is always satisfying, always so loving
It is always so tender, always so peaceful
It is always fulfilling, always keeps us smiling
We love you
18) My heart is full
Of love and respect
For a son like you
So flawlessly perfect
My spirit is bursting
With admiration
Because of you our life
Is a grand celebration
I love you
19) Just like how cheese is
The perfect accompaniment to wine
You are my perfect son
Who makes my life so fine
Just like how mayo is
A perfect accompaniment to salad
You are not just my son
But also my best bud
Just like how salt and pepper
Are a perfect pair
Thinking of my life without you
I love you
20) From the day you picked
Your first toy
To the day you became
From the day you went
To school on your own
Until the day you bought
A new home on loan
I have enjoyed
Every bit of your journey
I want you to know
By becoming a father
The happiness I have gained
No matter how hard I try
If my life so far
Was to be summed up in a day
Your birth was the break of dawn
Which purged the darkness away
I love you
22) You are my little son
My bundle of joy and fun
You are my good luck charm
My multipurpose healing balm
You are my thumping pulse
A handsome prince you are for your granny
For your grandpa, a cuddly toy
In your sister eyes, you are her protector
The best job in the world
Has been that of a father
A role like this
There is no other
Where each day is
Like a promotion
Where there is no need
Of motivation
The returns I get
In doing a job like this
Give me happiness
With total bliss
I love you
25) Sometimes we bicker
After which we laugh for a bit
Then we might just become
Enemies the next minute
Sometimes we sob
Then we may hug tight
Following it with an argument
Which would last all night
This is the typical story
Of a mother-son duo
How much they love each other
Deep within, even they know
I love you
26) To see you growing up so well
Gives us great pleasure
We feel proud to be addressed
As your mother and father
To see you become a good man
Gives us an great high
The value of our attachment
Just because we have
Too much love for each other
No differences can stop
Us from being together
I love you son
28) Our troubles disappear
When we see your smile
With you our life seems
Totally worthwhile
Everything falls in place
When you come to the rescue
Would do without you
Who makes us want to fly
Without your presence
We would surely die
I love you
29) Destiny has been
Very kind to me
It has given me a son
To always keep me happy
Fate has also been
Very generous
For giving me a son
Like you who is precious
Life in its entirety
Has been so benevolent
By giving us a son like you
To liven up every moment
I love you
30) The most glittering diamonds
Would seem pale
The most exotic gourmet dishes
Would seem stale
The brightest of colors
Would seem dreary
The toughest of troubles
Would seem puny
In front of you, dear son
Nothing is more momentous
You are the only person
Most important to us
We love you

"For My Son" - By Anne Marie Brown
They tell me you’re strong, son,
I tell them you’re kind.
Your heart is courageous,
and you know your own mind.
You’re gentle with small things,
you’re sweet to your core,
but brave new adventures,
and long to explore.
I know that each struggle
you’ll still at least try.
I hope you remember
it’s normal to cry.
Don’t sweat all the cool kids,
make friends with the nerds,
embrace all your weird parts,
break out from the herd.
Be good to the loved ones
you bring in your house,
be patient and open,
(and laugh with your spouse).
I hope that you’ll travel,
with friends or alone,
but know that you’ll always
have space here at home.
All this I wish for you,
my sweet, brilliant son,
our bond will grow stronger
your life’s just begun.
Love the boy that’s inside you -
love the man you’ll become.

Continuing our series of poems for parents, To My Son I Sometimes Wish by Larry Howland is especially for all of you parents of sons. But be warned, you'd better have a tissue handy when you read it!
To My Son I Sometimes Wish
I sometimes wish you were still small
Not yet so big and strong and tall
For when I think of yesterday
I close my eyes and see you play
I often miss that little boy
Who pestered me to buy a toy
Who filled my days with pure delight
from early morn to late at night
We watch our children change and grow
As seasons come then quickly go
but our God has a perfect plan
To shape a boy into a man.
Today my son I'm proud of you
For all the thoughtful things you do
I'll love you till my days are done
And I'm so grateful you're my son

A Mother Knows Her Son
My dear, sweet boy
I've seen it all
from your first kicks
to your first kiss.
You might think right now
you know it all,
but I've seen more of you
than you ever knew.
A Mother knows her son
better than anyone ever could
because I gave you life
and help you shine your light.
We Go Together Like Mother and Son
By Michele Meleen
Peanut butter and jelly,
moon and star,
these iconic pairings
can't compare to what we are.
We go together like mother and son
a match made in heaven.
We're stuck together
whether you're seven or eleven!
When two things fit
like the Earth and the sun,
they can only be
mother and son.
Son, I Owe All My Gray Hairs to You
I had brown hair when you were born,
But that didn't last very long.
I owe my gray hairs to you, my boy,
And I'll remind you how I got each one.
Those gray hairs at my temples
All came from the time you went fishing
In your Daddy' expensive saltwater tank,
And some of those fish are still missing.
Those gray hairs along my hairline
Are not highlights I got from my beautician.
They appeared when you tore through the neighbor's garden
Like you were on a search and destroy mission.
That smattering of gray you see
Growing right out of my crown
Is a souvenir I got from that wedding
Where you hurled on the bride's fancy gown.
They say gray hair is a mom's badge of honor,
And that may very well be true,
But I wouldn't trade them for all the world,
If it meant one less second with you.

Haiku for My Newborn Son

I Love You Son
By Michele Meleen
I love you son
Like no one else
Only you and I
Verified love personified
Every single
Moment I'm with
You, I feel that love
Sensing you feel it too
Only a mother's love
Nourishes your soul
I'd Choose You Again, Son
By Kelly Roper
I may not be your mother by birth,
But you're my true son in my heart.
I chose to create this bond with you,
And no one can tear it apart.
I couldn't love you more even if
I had carried you in my own womb.
My heart's bursting at the seams with love,
And there simply isn't any more room.
I bless the woman who gave you life
And let you come to our family.
If I had to do it all over,
I'd choose you again as the son for me.

Wishes for My Son
By Michele Meleen
If wishes were like seeds
on a dandelion in the yard,
I blow mine out on a breeze
for Mother Nature to safeguard.
I'd wish for my son
to be happy and free
like the bright burning sun
or a bird in a tree.
I'd wish for my son
to feel safe and loved
like man when life had begun
and the angels up above.
Prayers for My Son
By Michele Meleen
My son,
who art from Heaven
I gave you a strong name.
Your kingdom will come
as your work here is done
my own little piece of heaven.
I pray you give me each day
as a gift of love
and forgive me whenever I'm wrong.
By Michele Meleen
I'm proud of you son
A mother's dream come so true
How I define love
For My Son on Mother's Day
By Kelly Roper
You're the reason I'm a mother,
And it's a job I truly love.
And every morning when I wake,
I thank the good Lord above,
For giving me such a wonderful son
Who fills my heart with joy.
This might be my day, but I want you to know
I'm so glad that you're my boy.

Happy Birthday, son! I hope I survive!
From Kindergarten to Graduation
By Kelly Roper
I remember the sunshine that morning
When I took your little hand in mine.
Together we walked those few blocks to school
Where you went for the very first time.
I remember the unsure look on your face
As we entered the classroom door.
You tightened your grip on my hand because
You'd never been to school before.
I smiled at you to show it was okay,
And took you to meet your new teacher.
She told you it was going to be a great day,
But I don't think you really believed her.
I gave you a hug, we said our goodbyes,
And I walked toward the door to leave.
I looked back to see there were tears in your eyes,
And you wiped them away with your sleeve.
I worried the hours away that first day
Wondering how you were getting along.
Were you making friends, did you eat your lunch?
What if something had gone wrong?
The sad boy I left in the classroom
Wasn't the boy who met me at the school door.
You were grinning as you happily told me
You wouldn't be afraid of school anymore.
Now I'm here at your college graduation,
Remembering that long-ago day.
You've grown from a boy to an educated man,
And I'm prouder of you than I can say.
To My Son on His Wedding Day
By Kelly Roper
When I watch you on the altar today
As you take vows with your new wife,
Just know my heart's so filled with love,
As you embark on a brand new life.
Remember the lessons I've taught you
About respect, honor and faithfulness.
These virtues will guide and sustain you,
And ensure your marriage will be the best.
