Moonlight and Menopause

With love to Kate

Too fast the days will pass us by
Too quickly you'll grow and say goodbye
So much to teach, so much to learn
I'm filled with hope, love, joy, concern

It's hard to watch you grow away
since what I want's for you to stay

Stay the girl I snuggled tight
and never let stray far from sight

Stay the girl that loves to sing
don't be so rushed to spread your wings

For soon enough from home you'll stray
you'll be all grown and on your way

So let the mom who's held you tight
watch over you just one more night

It's hard to watch you grow away
but grow you must.....another day!
