Excitement ended,
the children are content
to play with their prizes,
and leave their parents in peace.
The glitz and glamour
will soon be set aside
as the rigors of the real world
demand due attention.
So savor the memories –
these times between times,
this stillness between breaths –
as long as you are able.
