Broken Cord

Once the cord is broken life is about to start 
You will be loved and cared for from the heart
Every step you take every word that you say 
Someone will be with you each and every day 

A time will come when you can do this alone
With this the love appears to be outgrown 
That is certainly not true and is not the case
Still cared for and loved with each passing place 

Life moves on and your carers are living no more
Now it's your turn to provide the love for sure 
Don't ever forget what others have done for you
Repeat it in everything you say and do

Again, a warm, wonderful piece of writing from a caring heart. This is such good advice for all youngsters, too.
