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
