Now thats the way I like to hear our friends feeling, happy and light! Me, I'm working on it...

Lifes Lessons Learned

When I was a small girl living at home,
mom and dad protected me, never let me roam alone.

As I grew a bit older, I was given more space,
I could come and go with friends to any safe place.

Now that many a year has passed me by,
I can go anywhere I want to with no one to ask why?

To be honest with you, I would have to admit,
I miss my ever vigilant guardians more than a bit.

Being an adult who can come and go as I please,
but not being cautious enough I met up with a sleeze.

When mom and pop met him they shook their heads NO,
they said they found him suspicious just looking for dough.

I guess no matter what age we become,
our parents are the smarter while we remain dumb.

Today when with mother she says, I told you so,
the next man you meet will be better I know.

Little does my mother know, there will be no more man for me,
my pets, a successful business, and good friends, are enough of Gods blessings I can honestly guarantee...
