Times moves forward…she stops for no one
perhaps that’s why the wise ones say
we must cherish every minute…
every moment…
of every day.
Perhaps that’s why as parents
we try to make every moment with our children last
knowing, from experience, childhood is over much too fast.
Knowing once their childhood is over we only have time to blame…
as to why summers and Christmases and holidays
are never quite the same.
Which is why, I imagine, there isn’t a parent out there
once all their children have grown
who…when they look around their house
and find themselves alone…
would give just about anything
to bring back one more childhood moment
would love to find a way…
for their children to be children again…
if just for one more day.
