This is my grandson, Brennan.

B athed in the soft glow of morning's gossamer light E ngrossed, as my eyes behold the most beautiful sight A sleep in his crib, I gaze down at my first grandchild. U nder Your protection, God. ~ I prayed, then I smiled. T ender maternal thoughts I hold of this infant baby boy. I nnocent eyes are looking at me. Oh, what feeling of joy! F ace of a cherub, sweet angel, though you're not divine, U ntil my heart no longer beats, you will live on in mine. L ittle lad, because of you, the word, "love," I redefine. * * * * * * December 28th, 2015 Beautiful Acrostic Contest Sponsor: John Hamilton
