A Nest Too Small: Project 180, Day 171

Morning, all. Feeling a little sappy as the end draws near. Okay, a lot sappy. Forgive me.

 

Out in the Air

 

Twenty-two years

Seems I just started

Then I remember

How many’ve departed

 

They left my class

Yesterday, it seems

Needed more room

Chasing bigger dreams

 

I wonder how they’re doing

I wonder how they are

Did they catch their dreams

Did their wings take them far

 

Our time was short

If I speak true

So I only did

What I could do

 

But I’m never quite sure

If it was enough

That’s why this job

Is sometimes rough

 

We wonder and worry

And often fret

Will they remember

And not forget

 

We believe they will

We place that bet

We did our best

We should not regret

 

They’re doing fine

They’ve found their place

Their wings spread wide

In their bigger space

 

And now too soon

New fledglings leave

Our too-small nest

And I will grieve

 

And wonder…

 

How they’ll do

How they’ll fare

Will they catch their dreams

Out in the air

Will they catch their dreams

Out in the air

 

Today’s Trail

Along today’s trail we will…

…begin with Smiles and Frowns.

…share Passion Papers! So excited for this. 

…end with a Sappy Sy Rhyme

Happy Friday, all. Sorry for sharing my sappier side. Dang kids always get to me. Why do they have to grow?

Do. Reflect. Do Better.
