Family
Mama Taught Him How
By: Dave Palmieri
June 17, 2007
He was young and once a sailor,
that day he first met Mom.
They soon became a family,
then next, I came along.
He was proud in the beginning,
what friends I thought we’d be.
He wasn’t always happy,
but why’s he mad at me?
He didn’t know how to love me,
the way he loved my Mom.
He said it wouldn’t work for him,
it wasn’t that way in his home.
He didn’t know how to love me,
but then he ran into a wall.
The day he saw me act like him,
and couldn’t handle what he saw.
That was when the change began,
‘twas only for the best.
And then when he met Jesus,
He put Dad to the test.
The change began within him,
he learned about true love,
And Mama taught him all the rest,
with guidance from above
I don’t know how she did it,
I don’t know what to say.
But because of Mama and Jesus
Dad loves me till this day.
The family curse was broken.
I can love my children now.
Since God’s love changed my father’s heart.
And Mama taught him how.
