Some years are seared in our memory<br />
Others are just a-fleeting<br />
The joyful laughter of our children at play<br />
Their raucous howls of gloom and glee.<br />
Years pass and we see ourselves<br />
Reflected in our children’s passing years<br />
The cries of pain when they are hurt<br />
Their beaming eyes when all is well.<br />
Like a butterly’s wings when a soft wind blows<br />
They flit, they flutter, and then they fly<br />
Away to a verdant meadow where fragrant flowers bloom<br />
Or to a dark, dense forest where sunlight seldom shone.<br />
But all these are just stages<br />
In our daily lives and theirs<br />
As transient as the seasons<br />
As changing as sunshine and rain.<br />
Then one day they will begin<br />
Another adventure so exciting<br />
Another journey filled with dread and doubts<br />
A journey where their future beckons<br />
Though with peril fraught.<br />
But this is what life is all about<br />
A constant dance with uncertainty<br />
Equipped with Experience, Knoowledge, Hope<br />
We smile bemused at is unpredictability.<br />
So onward to new terrain we go<br />
To landscapes, horizons ever-changing<br />
Seeking further life’s potential and promise<br />
Still searching for life’s higher dimension<br />
And once there, allow ourselves to soar<br />
To an unfathomed journey of the heart and soul.<br />
