Life Is A Nitpicking Journey

(This poem is dedicated to my daughter & son, congratulations on your Master & Bachelor degrees!) I knew you before you were born Of course I was there when You took your first breath Yes, I was there then. I remember the first pairs of shoes you've worn I remember your first laughs Your first kisses, your first smiles Your first steps, your first crawls Your first waves, your first falls Your first hellos, your first cries Your first bicycles, your first sighs The first time you were sad The first time you called mom and dad And the very first time you utter a word I can remember, Oh! Lord. You have everything that I have To me, you're everything And I was your first body guard I remember And I wonder. Yesterday is long gone With the song and the homeworks undone Carpe diem, carpe diem Gather the roses, all of them Now means everything to all of us However, there is one tomorrow Which will mean nothing to us May the Almighty bless all of us!
