3301 Leading a Horse
You can lead a horse wherever
but you cannot make him think
ahead. The stallion will buck,
and the cute stranger run amuck.
You could clean after them forever,
but don't get dragged as they sink.

4200 A Child's Departure
You let them go, you have to;
their life is their own.
They will come back to visit you
and show you how they've grown.
You let them go and wave smiling goodbye
You let them go, though your heart's terrified.
