Leaving Home

Excitement and joy yet pain Fearful and so sad yet bliss A dream to be realised Boughs bend to the wind

Thank you for your kind words and the fav. Afolabi. All children grow up and spread their wings as they mature, and when they leave home it brings a malestrom of emotions. love Shane
