Time Marches On

Time marches on
Change is coming

Clinging to Mom's bosom
First steps
Skinned Knees
First bike ride
School
First kiss
First date
Wedding
First child
Babies
Family
Life

Time marches on
Change is coming

Silver hair
Crow's feet
Wedding
First grandchild
Clinging to Grandma's bosom
Babysitting 
babies
Family
Life

Time marches on
Change is coming

Wedding
First great grandchild
Babies
Family
Aches 
Pains
First cane
First walker
Decline
Hospitals
Hospice

Time marches on
Change has come

Clinging to Christ's bosom
New mind
New body
No worries
First steps
Reunion
Family
Life
