Is It Over Yet?

Sunday morning church Your belly begins to growl Uncomfortable dress clothes The preacher on the prowl. Family road trips How long til we are there? Mom she’s touching me! Think I’m about to swear. Days of chauffeuring New driver’s license in hand Your graduation from high school Finding that perfect man. Waiting on a baby Who doesn’t know she’s overdue. Sleepless nights And gross baby spew. On to teenage attitude Think their smarter than you You know nothing Embarrassed by every single thing you do Waiting at the window It’s almost curfew time All the what if scenarios Playing through your mind. Different moments throughout a lifetime That seemed would never end Each day a new torture Time was not your friend. But hold onto all these moments Be grateful for it all Because life humbles us as we grow older, Only memories to recall.
