I've watched you learn and seen you grow <br />I've taught you things you didn't know, <br />I've shared your laughter and your tears <br />And all your heartaches and your fears, <br />I picked you up each time you fell <br />When you were sick I made you well, <br />Now in my mind these thoughts I'll keep <br />And dream of them within my sleep. <br /> <br /> <br />(2011)<br /><br />ANDREW BLAKEMORE<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/memories-of-a-child/
