Remembering what is and what was.............




Life……and so it goes


Six years old and long blonde hair
Shy blue eyes, a quiet stare
Wanting life to all be fair
Unsure her path to travel

Grateful for the little things
Baby stepping to spread her wings
Pockets of courage experience brings
Life……and so it goes

Memories of growing up years
Daydreams of how to stop feeding the fears
Back and forth between happy and tears
Observing the others on stage

A quick trip from playhouses, piano, young brothers
Softball, Kirt’s Drive-In…a long list of others
To juggling schedules as now wife and mother
The sand of the hour glass running

Thirty plus years have proved good, but gone fast
How much more time will this thrilling play last?
Still learning the lines and enjoying the cast
Life…..and so it goes
