sunrise sunset swiftly flow the days

a week from today my daughter leah will be getting married. i cant believe that the time has passed and that little girl that looked up at me and said 'uppy daddy' is now a beautiful young lady entering another phase of life and that i am now unable to 'uppy' her in my arms but....... will always be able to 'uppy' her in my heart.


"NOW IS THE LITTLE GIRL
A BRIDE.
UNDER THE CANOPY
I SEE THEM,
SIDE BY SIDE.
PLACE THE GOLD RING
AROUND HER FINGER,
SHARE THE SWEET WINE
AND BREAK THE GLASS;
SOON THE FULL CIRCLE
WILL HAVE COME TO PASS.
SUNRISE, SUNSET,
SUNRISE, SUNSET,
SWIFTLY FLOW THE DAYS;
SEEDLINGS TURN OVERNIGHT
TO SUNFLOW`RS,
BLOSSOMING
EVEN AS WE GAZE.
SUNRISE, SUNSET,
SUNRISE, SUNSET,
SWIFTLY FLY THE YEARS;
ONE SEASON FOLLOWING ANOTHER,
LADEN WITH HAPPINESS
AND TEARS."
