I held my breath and prayed that all would be well <br />Your belief in yourself, is something I loving adore <br />Today I came upon a realization that astonished <br />You’ve grown into an adult … destined to explore <br /> <br />Goodness reflects in your eyes, from all that surrounds <br />You are expressing goals with celestial latitudes <br />A transformation took place while I was sleeping <br />Your smile continues to confirms a hopeful attitude <br /> <br />Now I smile admiringly, and I no longer hold my breath <br />Your confidence is reassuring …I wish you the best <br />Your independence reminds me of an old wise adage <br />When young birds are fully feathered they fly from the nest <br /> <br />4/11/08<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-have-grown-up/
