EMPTY BOWER

I knew that the day would come
I knew you'd grow up one day
I  knew you'd go your own way ,little one
I  knew you'd fly away.

I  am happy that you've found your goal
I am glad that you can stand on your feet
I am proud of what you have made of your life
I am at peace you can overcome your strife.

I  did not consider it will be soon
That you'll blossom into a flower
Nor did I know it'll hurt me so
To see my empty bower.

I run to the window to see him pass As everyday I am surprised to see His thin, old body Weary and bent But his face aglow with the music he plays.
