Happy Halloween

The Batmobile was ready Four-year-old arms were steady. His baby sister by his side Cute and ready… Halloween ride. Daddy was a fireman. Mama was a nurse. Stephen would be Batman And remedy every curse! Nana, Aunt, and Uncle Would join the sidewalk rides. Armed with hollow pumpkins Mamas close by their sides. A classy group of children greet. To parties they may go. Or down the roads for trick or treat Young eyes shining with a glow – Where ever life may lead them, What ere the future holds, Though memories at times grow dim, Young days shape the childhood mold. My wishes may be from afar, But you are in my love, daily. Grow faith, have fun, be a shining star. I love you children; live life with glee! To Two of my grandchildren Love, Memaw, Dane

I delighted in your poem - you had me at Batman which always 'takes' me to my son. I know you must miss your sweethearts and hope you gift them this poem. If they aren't old enough to appreciate it yet, we both know time will quickly change that. I picture it in a theme frame. Great rhyme reflecting love, joy and longing. I enjoyed it ... CayCay
