My Poem Memories

Hi there all my friends Memories Watching serenely as they both traipse thru' Knowing how life without them would just never do, Cautiously I assess their haphazard games Mentally capturing memories 'tween frames, Recalling their births which seem like yesterday I grow forlorn for many long lost a day, With each passing moment my adoration grows tenfold As I grasp in wonderment at my progeny like gold, I hope and I pray my that health endures To proudly watch as my son matures, And to witness my daughter as she chastises her own for attempting the very things that cause her to now moan, How I applaud my mum for all she has done I thank her for each and every one The warnings, the laughter, and yes . . .even the tears Through all the memory filled days, months and years Just a note to say that my poem memories has won the overall Family Day section.
