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.
