Fountain of Youth : Family Poetry

written by Poet : joethecrow777


Fountain of Youth
I live vicariously through your youthful eyes.
Each thing you learn is a new exciting surprise.
With every bump and scrape,
I feel your pain each time you ache.
I was just as excited about your first kiss.
I felt the disappointment each time you swung and missed.
You are my fountain of youth.
I even kept your very first tooth.
Wanting your life to be better than the one I had.
Having enjoyable moments being your dad.
Again, I am young if only in my mind.
Your experences take me where my body leaves me behind.
