Gathering Fruit

To everything there is a season:
a time of planting, giving birth,
nurturing and training the little one,
watching his growth and independence,
preparing him to be self sufficient.

Then a goodbye as he leaves.
Hopefully one day, to return
with fruit to share-a family of his own
and little ones to love-grandchildren,
the fruit of the harvest.
