These are the days our childhoods promised
These are the lives we lead.
Cherish the moments you’ve been granted
Burn with a fire to feed.
Never back down from confrontation
Just because you’re afraid.
You’ll only look back
And wish that you had stayed.

Watch as your children tumble laughing
Guide them if they should stray.
Teach them that life is theirs to take
To live for each single day.
Offer them strength, a place to shelter
Whenever the road gets long.
Share in life’s journey -
Help their souls grow strong.

I love the sentiment of this Kaydee, some wise words indeed woven into a wonderful rhythmic form.
