Racing through the seasons
Running through them all
Trying not to blunder
Hoping not to fall
Teaching them to help me
Guiding them to thrive
Counting each new learning
Keeping joy alive
Planting every seedling
Sowing all the seeds
Giving them the toolbox
Plucking out the weeds
Praying they won’t flounder
Noting that they will
Seeing all their wonder
Taking all my fill
Loving every minute
Wanting it to last
Watching all their wonder
Knowing time goes fast
