Sometimes I Forget ...

Sometimes I forget ...

to be footloose and fancy free
not stressed out with the challenges that may be upon me.



Sometimes I forget ...

that laughter is the best medicine
that relieves the worried lines that go unseen.



Sometimes I forget ...

the carefree spirit of butterfly wings
leaving the world of cares floating beneath.



Sometimes I forget ...

the wonderment of a thousand questions asked
interrupting my thoughts laid by forth-coming tasks.

Sometimes I forget ...

simple pleasures are truly the best
with no complications inhibited by worldly tests.

Sometimes I forget ...

pure thoughts of young, innocent minds
proven best to withstand the test of time.



Sometimes I forget ...

that she sees beyond the mask that I wear
and into my soul much more than I am aware.



Sometimes I forget ...

that actions really do speak louder than the words I say
when she sees my follow-through with her I do play.




Sometimes I forget ...

the young child I see her as now
will grow up too soon although my time may not allow.




Sometimes I forget ...

to see beyond the "now" as I wish it could be
and daily remember that she is only three.
