These moments of yours are sacred
each and every one
a precious piece of all that is you.
Happy, sad, singing, yelling, laughing, fighting –
all part of all that you are
and all that you are yet to be.
You move much too fast for me,
fighting to grow.
I can hardly savor the moments,
never mind try to store each one,
remembering every detail
and sorting every memory
into exactly the right place in my heart.
Happy, sad, singing, yelling, laughing, fighting –
all fall into place.
A moment will come when you walk
a little farther away from me,
ready to take on the world
with all of the wonderful – beautiful – strong that you are
until you come home again and again
And each time I will hold within me
my sacred store
of all that is you.
