The First Day
I gave you a little wink and smile
as you dropped your child off today.
For I know how hard it is to leave
and know your child must stay.
You've been with her for five years now
and have been a loving guide,
but now, alas, the time has come
to leave her at my side.
Just know that as you drive away
and tears down your cheeks may flow,
I'll love him as I would my own
and help him learn and grow.
For as a parent, I too know
how quickly the years do pass,
and that one day soon it will be my turn
to take my child to class.
So please put your mind at ease
and cry those tears no more,
for I will love her and take her in
when you leave her at my door.
