Your Presence in my Life
Listening to yellow submarine,
We eat pancakes for breakfast;
Exciting day starts as our imagination crafts adventures,
We make Lego houses on unimaginable foundations;
Playing your favorite music in the car we drive,
We head to the beach trying to keep up with your stride;
Making meals as you sit on the kitchen counter,
We wash the rice with your directions;
Celebrating thanksgiving with candles and decorations,
We make your favorite treats as you help with preparations;
Running around at the playground making a lot of commotion,
We act out the stories from your imagination;
Walking barefoot on the wet grass we scrunch our toes,
We run around the yard as you chase toads;
Listening to you play your little guitar I marvel,
We are witnessing a little virtuoso amongst us;
Snuggling up as we get ready to sleep,
We share stories and tales in hushed voices so sweet;
Exploring each day with you is a celebration,
You teach me how to live life with appreciation;
Your presence in my life reminds me to cherish,
This special bond that you and I nourish.
