Thoughts of a Father

There will be a time, when I won’t be there to catch her, There will be a time, when a moment comes, That I won’t be able to protect her, Am I babying her too much? Am I teaching her, Success or failure? Have I given her the proper tools to use? When my journey is done and over? When I have left the earth. Did I teach her how, to use the tools, That I have showed her?
