Her First
She had her first breath
her first cradle,
her first laugh,
her first arrival.
She had her first bite,
her first word,
her first step,
her first year.
She had her first tricycle,
her first bicycle,
her first year of school.
She had her first friends,
her first love,
her first graduation of middle school,
her first college.
She had her first husband,
her first children,
her first job.
And suddenly,
she had her first goodbye to her family.
