The Last Time
Do you remember
the last time
you did something
for the first time.
Sitting in that tiny
chair, the last time
you read a book
for the first time.
Standing there at home
plate, the last time
you hit the ball
for the first time.
Stepping on the airplane
to fly, the last time
you went far away
for the first time.
Clicking the computer
icon, the last time you
delved into cyberspace
for the fist time.
Maybe tomorrow will
be a last time you do
something again
for the first time.

I really enjoyed this poem, Cousin Jack! It made me think of the first time I played tennis, and so many other things. Thank you for sharing with us!
