On the journey of life, we start out small, sheltered, nourished Parents care for our physical needs Our minds begin to develop under their intellectual probing. Growing, we become curious, entertaining, energetic Bodies still small in stature but minds rapidly gaining knowledge as we course down the Avenue of Adolescence. Further in the course of life, we develop independence, self-sufficiency, confidence On down the road we become our own Ties to home grow thin. And further still down life's long path we die Such is our chart of life This map is our destiny.
[Amy Burgin]
