A Short Rhymed Poem
A chapter in the book NaPoWriMo 2021
30. Lasts
by Debra White
Our precious girls and darling boy, you've brought us such unrivalled joy. Just babies not so long ago - How could we know how soon you'd grow? The time has flown, it went so fast. So many 'lasts' already passed - Last bedtime tale, last pushchair ride, last 'magic' kiss, last shoelace tied. No warning came with any 'last' - They just showed up, they never asked us if we minded giving up your bottle, then your sippy cup. But grow you must, as 'lasts' appear - We'll watch you flourish, year by year. |

For Ben, Katie and Rebecca - our precious girls and darling boy.
Where did the last 16 years go?!
The photo is of me and them, taken by my husband last winter.
This is the last poem in my NaPoWriMo 2021 book. I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all of you that have read, left feedback and given me encouragement and support with the challenge. I appreciate you all :) xx
