Time Moves (A Poem)

Time moves quickly
Speeding faster
With every tick
Of the clock
From first steps
To first words
To the first day of school.
You’ll learn
You’ll grow
You’ll stumble
Along the way
And we will
Reach
Out
And guide you
Teach you.
But for a moment
We’d like to stay
Right here
Capture the moment
Hear the laughter
Dry the tears
Read the storybooks
Sing songs about
Jesus,
Watch you
Play.

That's so touching and I could relate so beautifully to it. My elder one moves out of the house in a couple of months for her college life and moves to another city. I just want to relive all those moments.
