I Now See A Woman Grown



Twas just but
a moment of time ago
You rested safe in my arms
oh how was I to then know



Time stands never still
not even for a parent's heart
That wishes for all to remain
as it was at the very start



Time is the biggest thief
a parent faces
For they travel oh so fast
down roads with no retraces



Looking back is but a blurr
of hurried rushing time
Pausing briefly on moments
held in this heart of mine



The age of innocence
The time of carefree
The secrets held
between you and me



The giggles ... The squeels
The hugs ... The kisses
These are the memories
every parent misses



I stand and look at the present
with the memories of past
You my beautiful daughters
what awesome shadows you cast



My beauiful winged doves
my nest you have flown
Oh too soon for this heart
I now see two women grown.

I Love You Both So Very Much
ღ Mom ღ

Dedicated to my two beautiful daughters
Wendy and Tonya

Oh Sweetie, this brought tears to my eyes and thoughts of my Kimberly. If we could always protect them as we did when they were babies. If only they realized that life so swiftly flies and that their own babies will soon be grown and flown from them as well. As always you have completely captivated my heart with your own. I didn't think I had ever missed anything you had ever written but I almost missed this one. What a loss that would have been. Beautiful, absolutely B E A U T I F U L

My Love for ever and ever and ever .....
