What I learn from you

Learning

 

At three , you tried to teach me to read

Looking back at it today,

I learn patience.

At eight, you tried to teach me manners,

Looking back at it today,

I learn kindness.

At thirteen you tried to reason with me,

Looking back at it today,

I learn empathy.

At twenty, you pushed me to spread my wings,

Looking back at it today,

I learn selfless love.

At forty, I look at the dusty pictures

looking back at them

I learn what it’s like to be you.
