They Love Me Most!
By Larry Chadwick

This post is in honor of my mom and dad,
Because I’m grateful to be the first they had.
For I really do feel blessed,
My brother said they love me best.

It is not my intention to be bold,
I’m just repeating what I’m told.
While you think that I still boast,
My father assured me he loved me most.

Even my mother likes to recall,
That she loves me best of all.
My brothers bubble I hate to burst,
But that’s the advantage of being first.

P.S.

For those who don’t seem to understand,
Together, this is what my parents planned.
It made me proud and stand so tall,
They said it to us all!

Each of my 3 sons say the same thing, and of course I always agree with them as long as their brothers aren't listening.
Enjoyed must be nice to be the special one.

Smiling....I'm the last of five kids, and the beauty of my parents is that we all claim to be the favorite--AND WE BELIEVE IT!!! Thank you for the smile (and aren't we lucky?)

Larry,

I too am the oldest child, so of course our parents love us best cause they've loved us the longest. And who could resist our sweet beautiful faces? LOL. Don't mind me, I'm in a corny mood this afternoon.

Anyways this is a great poem. Thanks for sharing.

Cute poem, Larry.  Isn't it funny how parents always love each of their children the best.  I remember, as a child...having a big fight with my younger sister about that...because they told each of us that they loved us best.....even funnier, when I grew up...I did the same thing with my own kids.
It must be a natural instinct.  How can any parent not love any of their kids THE MOST!

Hello Larry
Your sense of humour really shines through in this piece of writing.  Might I suggest that we widen the doorways so that someone of your unique stature might get through??!!
(only joking Larry!!) This was great!
Take care my friend.......Sue
