Letters to My Son: Poems for the Man You've Become

Some things are easier to write than to say out loud.Letters to My Son is a collection of 76 heartfelt poems from a parent's heart to the son they watched grow - from small shoes by the door to the man he's become.Through six emotional chapters, this poetry collection walks through every season of raising a son: the wonder of early childhood, the growing pains of independence, the pride and fear of watching him take his own risks, the ache of distance once he leaves home, the words too often left unsaid, and finally, a celebration of the man he is now.Each poem captures a moment every parent holds onto - the bike he learned to ride, the door that started closing, the phone calls that end too soon, the quiet apologies never spoken aloud. Tender, honest, and quietly powerful, this book says what everyday life so rarely leaves room for.A meaningful gift for: - A son, on Mother's Day or Father's Day, from a parent- His graduation, wedding, or milestone birthday- Christmas, wrapped up as something he'll actually keep- A quiet "just because" that says more than a card ever couldPart of the Letters to Loved Ones series from Porch Light Press - also available: Letters to My Daughter, Letters to Mom, Letters to Dad, Letters to Grandma, and Letters to Grandpa.
