My Child

I cannot choose the path
That you must venture too...
Let your heart take the lead
in whatever you pursue

You are My child, My treasure
It's difficult to let go...
Although your journey will long
I must let you grow.....

If journey weakens you
Because of its demands
I'll be walking by your side
Reach out and take My hand

If you ask, I'll promise
To walk with you to the end
But my love will steadfast
AS you round the bend
