Life Circle..

When I am born, you are here

In your eye, I see a tear

Time flies and already I'm two

"Look, Daddy, I can tie my shoe!"

Before you know it, I'm five

Every day, you thank God I'm alive

Pretty soon, I turn eight

You tell me I'm never allowed to date

Another year down the road

Mom dies, oh the many tears that flowed

You're not doing so well without her

Less than a year later, you forgot all about her

The cycle has begun again

It has started over with little Megan

The other day, she turned two

And said, "Look, daddy, I can tie my shoe!"
