Not perfect, but mine

Not perfect, but mine 

by Joel Howard

Perfect? No

But mine, yes

These kids are all I have

Brave? Yes

Skilled? Yes

These kids are all I have

Everything I have I have given them

Everything I am I direct at them

Father! Would You just look at them! 

Are they perfect? No! 

But God, they're mine! 

Perfect? No. 

Mine? Yes!
