Poems
Sep 2013
Happy 17th
Finally I am tall enough
To put those orchids
Beside your marblestone
The one with your face
Forever trapped
At the pausing of time
Child-like innocence
The sparkle in your eyes
Nothing's changed
But the world outside?
They've aged; I've grown
We're not the same
Soon you will be seventeen
We've come a long way
But your wonders, they'll stay
They'll never fade.
Happy Birthday.
