The Starting End

I held you in my arms
Rocked away your tears
Skimmed stones upon the water
Tea parties in early years

There for you when you came home
Spoke about your day
There for you when you would call
When things were not ok

Shared the joys and milestones
Of yours as well as mine
One others strength in times of darkness
Together we found light

With planted seed a role was given
To last my whole life through
To love and guide
Honor
Respect
The ever changing you

I’m more tired now as I grow old
And you so very strong
Choose wisely now
My Darling Daughters
And find where you belong

Remember your past
From where you’re from
Don’t hide in memories pain
Life has a way of mending itself
To get on your feet again

The highs don’t stay nor do the lows
Nothing stays the same
Now go on
Sweet Children
In to your world

Grab that dream
That bares
Your name
