I watched every inch, listened to every word
it takes time to grow up
we lived it together, all the outgrown shoes,
pink tutus and shiny tiaras, stuffed bears,
skateboards and school proms
quite a lifetime of stuff and adventures
all carried inside and onward to
hiking boots and blue tennies,
five foot ten to six two or is it three
all grown up, not so fast, not so quickly
relished as all things important.
