EXPERIENCE

Deborah danced, when she was two,
As buttercups and daffodils do;
Spirited, frail, naively bold,
Her hair a ruffled crest of gold,
And whenever she spoke her voice went singing
Like water up from a fountain springing.
But now her step is quiet and slow;
She walks the way primroses go;
Her hair is yellow instead of gilt,
Her voice is losing its lovely lilt,
And in place of her wild, delightful ways
A quaint precision rules her days.
For Deborah now is three, and oh,
She knows so much that she did not know.

Love the photo, love the poem. I have a Morgan that it would also fit... although she is nearly seven and knows it ALL. ;)

This photo captures the snatches of life with little ones that pass with such swift sweetness.
