First Time!

A whispered truth, a guiding light,

"There's a first time for everything," it might

Be whispered by a friend so kind,

Or echo in the restless mind.

The first step taken, wobbly, slow,

A world unfolds, where wonders grow.

The first word spoken, soft and new,

A bridge is built, of me and you.

The first bike ride, with wobbly wheels,

The wind a song, joy that it reveals.

The first heartbreak, a tear that falls,

A lesson learned, through darkened halls.

The first love found, a tender spark,

A beating heart that leaves its mark.

There's fear, there's doubt, a chance to take,

For in that first step, dreams awake.

So hold on tight, as life unfolds,

Embrace the new, the stories told.

There's a first time for everything, you see,

And in those starts, our futures lie free.
