英詩創作: Parenting (親職)

Parenting

You won’t always be able to hear the cry,

Or check me peeing,

In the diapers.

For I am a hurry.

Don’t be angry.

You won’t always be able to deal the tantrums,

Or see me lying,

On the floor.

For I want a candy.

Don’t be sad.

You won’t always be able to find the body,

Or the foot putting,

On your body.

For I can’t sleep still.

Don’t bother.

You won’t always be able to hold,

Or piggy back me,

Down the road.

For I can’t walk that far.

Today is a gift.

Remember every hug and kiss.

You’ll know when it is gone.

Tomorrow is a must.

Study every face and foot.

You’ll never have these days again.
