Empty Nest

You carry them for nine months
You watch and help them grow
Infant,Toddler
young men, young woman
Shaping you for the world
This sin sick world

Empty Nest

No longer in elementary
Now in middle
Wow! almost a senior

Empty Nest

Now all grown
Out on your own
Tears in my eyes

Empty Nest
