Poem Artwork

My little sunshine is all grown up as he is now moving into his own place as they sure grow up so quickly and you wonder where has the time gone that has went by so fast.

However many fond memories will always live in your heart and more to come as he now ventures out onto his own.

His room will become empty now as you feel rather blue but knew that eventually this day would come especially since he is twenty.

A young man ready to lead his own life.

While his two younger brother’s now squabble over who gets his soon to be empty bedroom and daddy says, “A nice den this will be just for me”.

When the day soon arrives as your son now says goodbye and of course you cry and wish him all the best as this world can sure be tough at times but you always knew you brought him up right as you hug him tight.

Suddenly I flash back to the most wonderful day of all as baby boy Fall was placed in my arms.

Then watching him pull away and in ways wishing he would stay but he is grown and now on his own starting today.

When one day in the near future he will be a husband and then a father but to me deep inside my heart he will always be my little boy.

If only there was a way to make age 2 thru 7 last for 20 years! Such is life, can't believe my son has joined the dark side, yes, the police force. :)

A beautiful, meaningful poem, Laura ~
It is difficult for me to even think of my sixteen year old leaving, just the thought...tears...but it is all part of the circle as John writes, and hopefully on certain holidays they come running back to the warmth of home.
Blessings,
Christine

This is how it goes, Laura,
the magical circle of life with
all it losses, joys, pains and rewards.

Laura, this is the way of life for all of us that are parents. I'm the father of four children, all grown now -- and, yes! -- the years flew by so quickly that I can hardly believe it. My eldest is now fifty-four. When he left home, my wife cried, when he returned, my wife cried.
Your friend, Mark

This scenario is played out countless times and will continue to be played out until time immortal. You raise them with good values, hug them and turn them loose and hope and pray for the best. And you are correct, he will always be your little boy.
