JOYOUS DANCE

The years have gone so quickly. The sweet moments how they did fly.

That tiny baby in my arms, so warmly did he lie.

My first born son, that gift from God above.

I hardy knew before, what it was to feel such love.

Those days went by so very fast, I didn't have the chance.

To see the growing of my child, or in my heart to dance.

And then before I knew it, I had another one.

A tiny baby girl, whose smile was like the sun.

Time went by and I did try to be the best Mom ever.

Although my heart was full of love, my heart didn't dance, not ever.

Later I had another chance.

And though I loved him very much,

my heart still didn't dance.

Why couldn't I see through all those years

The joy that a family brings

Our hearts should rejoice. And our hearts should dance.

With the happiness that a family can bring.
