Your boxes of things,
At every turn.
The books and toys,
That helped you learn.
You’re heading off,
To the setting sun.
Making your way,
Love, life and fun.
The years behind,
Now a distant past.
As they saying goes,
They flew by fast.
From when together,
As you developed inside,
To who you are now,
Leaving our sides.
My wish is that,
You never again,
Have to return,
To this nest.
But, to build your own,
Home and family.
To know success,
Being financially free.
We supported you,
The best we could.
Now we send you off,
As all parents should.
