Life takes you on

How proud I stood - yet filled with fear
Your fragile breath ... could scarcely hear

Unfounded fear as year by year
You grew in strength and beauty dear

Too fast - and all too fast you grow
Time takes you on it will not slow

And as you learn - you'll surely know
A time will come - you'll want to go

Life takes you on - you will not stay
I love you both - it's just lifes way.
