Over the years
I have often wondered
Have I made the right decisions
Truly I don’t know
During the past ten years
Like everyone else
The ride has had its ups and downs
During this time
I had to be both a mother and a father
Fortunately a wonderful woman
Told me
For your son to fly
It had to be
his time - his journey
Just remember each child
Will take wing
When it’s their time to fly
I am led
to the fence
I see that the grass is greener
On the other side
Will it be different this time
I remember well the path of life
It is to be walked together
Love both emotionally and physically
Must be given equally and freely
Remember
Trust and loyalty have no bounds or limits
For contentment and warmth
will follow you forever
I wonder
Will the bell toll again for me
