Noah is a gentle Soul
Though he hides it well
Gentle as a blizzard
That makes the ocean swell
Gabriel, on the other hand
Retreats behind his mask
Watching, waiting quietly
To let the strong winds pass
Then we come to Riley
Limber as a frog
First here, then quickly there …
But never in a fog
David Jasper, now seventeen
Is at the starting gate
Anxious for this year to end
In pursuit of future’s fate
Intelligent and insightful
I can see it, now they’re gone
Gone off to Arizona
My home have grown beyond.
