Such a lovely poem of love for your children! I have three adult sons and one adult daughter, so I can tell you, I've been down empty nest street, too! Great write, Jack!

Jack thank you for sharing this wondrous, delightful
recollection of precious moments with your children.
Reminds me of when my two boys played in little league.
Thanks for the memories!

Those very same memories are in my chest of treasurezs. My daughter loved the lighning bugs until the island we lived on became HOt for Condos near the water. We saw them fade then but...here where I am now...they live like little fairies all dressed out at night fall. I wouldn't trade the awe of the child for how these moments still make me feel. I will share them with my own grand kids one day. Thanks for this most precious poem. It is one of my favorites.

Children do grow too quickly! Loved this write. This is the verse that had me smiling the most:

As on my lap she sits
I have to act as if I know
Exactly what it is
That makes a lightning bugs butt glow
