^_^ Wonderful poem, and beautiful sentiment. No complaints on rhyme or rhythm, which I believe were perfectly executed. Once again, a wonderful poem.

Putting into words the feelings of a parent is not always easy. This strikes well to the heart of any parent who can visualize the written words...well written and wonderful message...

I wanted to expree how quickly time goes by as your children grow. One moment they're in your arms... the next they are flying on their own. Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem :-)

Its true, it seems like only yesterday they were babes in arms, suddenly they are off into the big world. When you are young,time goes by so slow. Suddenly before you know it it flys by. A lovely flowing poem, a poem that gives food for thought. HUgs,V,xx

Thank you for taking the time to read and review my poem. It is sad how quickly the time flies. I yearn to have the days back when he could stay in my arms, safe from all the problems of the world. Now, my arms aren't enough to shelter him.

Nice to dead someone comment on the dream/wish that their children will accomplish more than they. It is tragic when (as I have observed) parents are jealous of their childrens acomplishments. Slainte, rhymer1
