Gift of Time.

Goldfinch60



They come into our lives with joy,

It may be a girl, it may be a boy,

But each one is part of us,

Part of us for all our lives.

From their birth,

Through their childhood,

Into adolescence,

To adulthood,

We are there for them,

As we can give them a gift,

The most important gift we have,

We give them time.

 

They fly the nest

Into a world of their own

We are still there for them

But then it happens

That day comes

That day when they ask,

Ask what they can do for us,

What they can give us,

And once more that gift is within them,

The most important gift they have,

They can give us time.

    I had time to read this good write Gold.
    I wish I had not had so much free time in 1066 - things may have turned out differently if I had not turned up!

    Time is the one thing that we need to be ourselves.
