UPON THE VERGE OF SPRING<\/strong><\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

Our hearts danced and sang
\non the day you were born,
\nso tiny and precious,
\na true miracle of birth.
\nAnd when the time came
\nfor you to test those new wings,
\nwe knew you could fly
\nand do so many wonderful things.
\nWe all knew you were ready,
\nyou and us as well
\nbecause you were
\nand so were we
\nas we were glad to step back
\nand watch you spread those wings
\nas you took your very first flight.
\nWe watched as you began to fly
\nand as you then began to soar,
\nyour confidence growing
\nwith every passing day.
\n<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

\n

And on this day
\non the verge of Spring
\nI witness life as it begins anew,
\nmiracles each one
\nwhether big or small
\nas I’m reminded by
\nthe tiny bird that sings
\nthat there’s so much beauty
\nthat I miss within the chaos
\nthat life often becomes.
\nAnd I’m reminded
\non this day just before
\nthe arrival of Spring.<\/em> <\/em><\/font><\/p>\n
