Her last birthday at home she was just 5, I didn't know how we would ever survive
The last birthday of his was at 8, I didn't know how to help him be a man from so far away
Yet each year that passed was woven into our hearts, tracked in skateboard, trains or cars.
Never to miss anytime if less than half, love builds a bridge for all spirits to part
The sand in the hourglass can cover our trail, at moments feel like there's no way to prevail
Hope can be lost as it can be found, the journey is short but takes its toll.
The gift of a smile will always soothe the soul, if you give what was needed then it won't feel so long.
Before you know it you'll write poetry in memory of all that made you strong, to dance the rest of the days to any emotional song.
Life is for living and it's hard to believe, we're all right where we belong until we need more room to breathe.

Such lovely words
I think it’s difficult to be believe that life is for living … when we are caught up in pain .. but your right it completely is for living
Something that I find very confusing .,
I guess it’s difficult not to spend as much time with your kids .. as you perhaps want to
I’ve had an ‘ on and off ‘ relationship with my dad for a while now . Met up with him a few weeks ago , made me feel sad about time not seeing him , but it was nice !
Relationships can always improve between people .
It was difficult but time had passed and they are getting full-time into their own lives.
They will always be little no matter how big they grow and this I'm afraid it's hard to know until the seeds are your own.
I'm glad you got time to spend with yours and enjoy what we now have, is all we can do.
Hello Dan!
My first read of the day. I enjoyed the video very much along with your inspirational scripted poem. Thank you for sharing your author’s comments. I love your words,
‘Let nothing stand in our path when love is the heart.’ So beautifully stated.

I am so glad to be a breakfast delight of all the love in my heart, grown from many rainy days that you've been a part of.
Time does fly my friend and I truly thank you for years of support.
Have a wonderful day
You will always have my support, my dear Dan.☺️
Such beautiful lines
More precious when could relate to memory of yours
When you meet next make new memories to frame
It’s never late to spend time again
They were child back then
Now you can be child with them
A very heartfelt poetry my dear friend
Reminded me to keep making sweet memories
I read your comment and thought of a beautiful line.
For the first time in a while I think it needs no more!
You never fail to inspire me my friend and appreciate each time you comment!
All the best
Keep making those memories
Wonderful words and superb pictures Dan, that love from you to them and them to you is so resilient in your life and it will always be so.
