A Child's Life

Children look up to super hero's,
Cause they stand fo the good of people,
They also look up to their parents,
For the knowlege of right from wrong,
And other things in life,
So charish them everyday and hold them tightly,
Close to your heart,
For one day they too will be all grown up,
To have a family of their own,
And even though you will,
Continuously love them and charish them,
You will still see them as the children they were,
Cause it was like yesterday they were,
And now they're grown up,
So fast and you hope you have raised them right, 
And your love was enough,
That it will never die throughout time,
Cause you two will always be together,
As it's meant to be,
As they become parents they begin to see,
What you have taught them was for their own good,
As they teach their children as well,
So always remember the children in your life,
For they will bring you happiness,
That will come so true,
That in the end,
Will be as  hearts plain site.
