the grass lot

as the children run
in circles
in the grass lot across the street
i see
the parents
nearby, shadowed by the new
green of trees.
who knows how
quickly this all passes,
it was just
yesterday
that i too was there, 
watching as my son grew
and grew
his life becoming his own,
and soon it was time
to leave.
