The circle of life - a photo on Flickriver

The circle of life

            By David Harris:

The pampas grass is blowing in the wind, 
it is swaying to and fro, 
letting go of its children to the wind. 
Hoping they can take root 
in some safe place.

We watch our children 
from infants to adulthood. 
We shed a few tears 
when they leave 
to start new lives of their own.

Every one of us 
has to spread our wings 
at some given time. 
Our leaving maybe tearful, 
but our parent’s blessings always follow us.

And so the circle of life 
goes on and on, without end. 
Our children grow and leave, 
and then they watch their own 
do the same as them.
