In Her Room by Joe CramerEmily decorates her room
In ways that I would have never imagined.
She enjoys the solace, the solitude
Far too much like me.
A poster here, a picture there
(One poster on the ceiling)!
I remember the time
When my own room was my solitude,
My solace, my "happy-place."
I guess that I shouldn't worry
Though she's growing up in a hurry.
She still prefers a night light,
A hug and a kiss from Dad before bed.
I do wish that I could see her more.
