Where did the time go? Ode to Nate the Great...

Where did the time go?

I am not very sure.

It slipped through my hands,

faded out the door.

 

It wasn't very long ago,

I caught you in my arms.

A laughing young boy,

 with innocent charms.

Where did the time go?

Goodbye, magic age,

 my fair blonde boy,

has grown tall and sage.

Computers and games,

 replaced trains and things.

A World of Warcraft

battle reigns.

Gone the boy

 in OshKosh blues,

Now in hipster jeans,

and mosh pits too.

Where did the time go?

I confess I do not know,

but the greatest joy of all

has been watching you grow.

We love you Nathan,

:)
