Time (For Megan Leigh)

Dedicated to my precious little girl.
Time.
An arrival of such a special child,
During the middle of an Autumn wild.
A tiny joy that paused my heart,‭
A part of me right from the start.

Time.
I watched you grow from small to tall,
Even the day I saw you crawl.
Pleasant memories that cause a stir,
As the time passed with such a blur.

Time.
Cheerleading,‭ ‬basketball,‭ ‬and the prom,‭
We watched you grow,‭ ‬me and your mom.
But, ‬it‭'s all so clear in my mind,
Memories of you that are so kind.

Time.
All grown up,‭ ‬now a lady,
Now you‭’‬re expecting a tiny baby.
Over time,‭ ‬we have been so far apart,
But,‭ ‬you‭’‬re always near,‭ ‬in my heart.

Time.
You need to know,‭ ‬I am so proud,
I say it so‭ ‬and always aloud.
Please know,‭ ‬you have your father‭’‬s love,
You are the gift from the skies above.
