Life is a Circle

About how time flies so fast

Wasn't it yesterday?

You were placed in my arms
A tiny wrinkled turned up nose

And wasn't it yesterday

You were fighting with your friend in the yard?

Wasn't it yesterday?

You got on the bus for your first day of school?

And wasn't it yesterday

When you plead that you had to have a car?

Wasn't it yesterday
When you wore a cap and gown
You made me so proud

Wasn't yesterday when you wore a gown of white.

But today, when they placed the new born child in my arms. My child's child, it was than I knew

Yesterday is today, and the child, tomorrow

What a wonderful poem. Life goes by so fast how true, and creates a circle of newness.

Well done...life is a circle and time does pass so swiftly. I went to my granddaughters third birthday party today...I sat quietly pondering the thought of how swiftly time passes, it seems that only a few years ago I was going to my son's third birthday party, and all the other significant dates in their lives passed before my eyes. Stitches, broken bones, cheerleading, football, graduations, college, marriages, births...and life goes on. Reflecting back upon our children's lives reminds us to savor and enjoy every minute of of everyday....enjoyed this much our thoughts were in unison today...welcome to the den!
Blessings,
Joyce B.
