Aside

Middle Schooler

There you are
Not too far away
Sitting on the floor
Playing with Legos

It’s a welcome sight
Since you are
A teenager now
Making your stamp
On the world

Not too long
And you will be
In high school
Then college

Gently shake my head
Back to reality
Into the now
To this precious moment in time

There you are
Not too far away
Sitting on the floor
Playing with Legos
