“Where Did The Time Go?”


As time goes along I sit here and think.
How things can be gone in just a blink.
You live your whole life putting up a good fight.
Hoping in the end everything will turn out right.

You get up at the break of dawn.
Stretch out your arms and yawn.
Knowing ahead of you is a full day.
So you get up without delay.

Off you go to do your daily routine.
Off to work then later a house to clean.
You watch right before your very eyes.
Your kids grow up, how time flies.

It seems as if it was only yesterday.
You were taking them to the park to play.
And now before you they stand.
No longer do they need you to hold their hand.

Where did all the years go?
It seems like it was only yesterday they leaned to say hello.
This is the day we all seemed to fear.
As you sit alone and wipe away a single tear.

Thinking how fast they seemed to grow.
Wondering where did all the time go.
Then across your face there is a smile.
Knowing all that you did was worthwhile.

How true that is Slow.... even though mine are grown it always makes me smile to have them just to drop by out of the blue..... we talk we laugh then it comes that time for them to leave. I love my time alone but it makes my day to have them come by....:heart: bigsmile

Davey I think we all have the same feelings when it comes the time our kids grow up.... But then at times we are blessed in order to have those same moments with our grand kids. So it is like living the memory all over again.... how sweet it is...bigsmile

Thank you all for your kind words...... and glad that I could take you back down memory lane.... if only for a moment.... biggrin

my kids are all under 10yrs of age, and I already feel like time is slipping away, I miss them already and I am with them everyday still, yet i sense that force of independence within them slowly pulling away from me. wah tears

Ohhh girl just make those memories for that is what will get you through the years down the road.... Now we sit and talk as I tell them things they did and we always have a good laugh.... I see my son so much in my granddaughter it hurts... but yet she is her own self that keeps me in stitches....

Don't worry with tomorrow just enjoy what you have today... for it goes by too fast if you look ahead too much you will miss that special moment...love


Bry..........your more then welcomeflowers
