The First Time

 

I’m sitting in Starbucks

Waiting for Sloan to pop in

She’s out on her own now

Licensed - with a car to drive

 

As I watched the world pass by

From my seat at the window

There she was

Driving by looking for a space

 

And that was the moment

The first time I saw her

Driving solo

Being her independent self

 

Driving into her future

With so much to look forward to

And so many things to try
