He arrived only yesterday. Remembering
first steps, the hilarity he seemed to exude
with each accomplishment. 'Twas only a
bit ago he didn't want mom to choose his
clothes; had to do it himself. Then somehow,
school happened. Pictures each year, pure
icing on the cake! Long awaited summer
visits, turned summer jobs, losing me my
spot. Pretty girls, fun friends, shiny new
experiences, that first car . . . end of an era.
And, all of a sudden, he's being swallowed
whole . . . his country calling . . . he arrived
only yesterday . . .
adios my son
farewell so long see you soon
pray we see you soon
