Blooming Dreams

Springs are flying by as I see her bloom

I watch her grow and don’t want to let go

After spring comes summer

Full of joy, light and blooming kisses

I am high as she holds my hand

I am low as she let it go

Long summer days diving in the blue room

Dreaming of places where she wants to go 

I watch her grow and I don’t want to let her go

With fall comes the longing for wishing stars

And the shorter days by the burning fire

And I watch her grow

As the light changes so changes her dreams

The wishes are deeper but not less swift

The glow on her face telling me to let her go

Like a cocoon waiting to break away

Unwearyingly weaving the colors on its wings

And then winter comes

Long hours by the table

Candles burning as her face glow

More light

More dash

She has all figured out

But as her head rests on my shoulder

Confiding her day and her dreams

I know there will be more summers

Before I let her go

Before I let her grow
