Wow, wow. Love this.
Wish I had more stars.
Brings a certain reality, yet, signifies a certain thought, all to do with time and age, and thoughts that are ever evident as we go on.
Watching them grow old is such a statement when one also defines such a category.
Bravo.
My best wishes.

Awww, how bittersweet. I love the format you chose for the poem. It really added dearth.
As you go through and show the changes your children have over gone, you tie it all back in the end to their busy hands as children!

Love it,
Rhonda

I started to feel old when I noticed that police and doctors looked younger than my children! Well written Nonet about the realisation of passing years, viewed from a different perspective. Best wishes for the contest.

I too, am in that boat. I rarely look in the mirror, but I can see my age in my children. It is so hard to believe, as they will always be children in my heart and eyes. Well done. I enjoyed this. Blessings, Barbara

I guess old age is the nature of humanity. In a family of twelve, my baby sister turns seventy this year. Life is short and we must take advantage of the time we have on this planet. found this to be a lovely poem. I wish you all the luck in the world in the contest.
