A young adolescent girl, one
hand on the wheel,
turns and looks out
her side window,
proudly holding up the keys for
all to see. It
seems just yesterday
I held her and
her baby sister on my lap.
How bitter-sweet
to know that to grow
they have to go.

Beautifully touching. I like the words, “How bitter-sweet to know that to grow they have to go,” while the girl sits in a car ready to move forward. Thanks once again, Joan.
