The child innocent and wide eyed
Love pouring from her young soul
for parents, toys and animals
The adolescent finding her way
Emotions in turmoil, desire sneaking in
Young boys starting to attract
Then it happens
That moment when innocence is lost
The girl becomes a woman
no more the child she understood
Her young friends turning to her for advice
her, now the older woman
the wiser one with 'experience'
Her Mother waiting patiently for the 'time'
It arrives soon, and they share a moment
Wedding bells have chimed
Maturity has brought with it many changes
her journey one of joy and emotion
wisdom and self respect
Now a Grandmother with a bosom filled with warmth
a nesting place for her Young's young
These are the special years
This is her glory time
This is when a woman can truly say
' I am all I ever could be'
' I am all I ever wanted to be'
' I am me'
