Life Well Spent

The years, the years are flashing by
The girl I was who yearned for love
The carefree days not treasured then
Are treasured now, so cherished now

Young wife and mother took her place
With carefree days put on a shelf
Replaced by long and sleepless nights
Days of wet kisses, laughter and tears

When did the young wife disappear
Replaced by working mom and boss
The days they fly, no time to think
Or plan or mourn her loss

And now I go by grandma
And wonder where time went
Though deep inside I'm still that girl
It's been a life well spent
