About This Poem

My Little Dragonfly

In mystery I wait, my heart beats, and sings,
I wonder in splendor where you are, in Heaven above;
Sugary sweet flying around on angel's wings,
I anxiously await you, my bundle of love.

Your toy box is already overflowing with little things,
I pray to the Lord you will be perfect my unblemished dove,
I cry out in joy, awaiting my first grandchild I sing,
You, my first of humble birth, my dream yet to be loved.

We will sail pirate ships, chasing dragonflies each spring,
Name the fishes in this placid lake we can see, my beloved;
It need not matter to me if you be queen or king,
I love you now, my very first grandchild, I am forever yours.

I dream of your beautiful eyes, cute, and coy,
God restores my heart in loving you with all joy you bring;
Antique dollies purchased, even a set of boxing gloves,
My first Grandchild yet not born,  I already love, my little dragonfly I adore,

    Lucky you! My daughter is trying, but still in college so I hope they WAIT just a little bit longer. I LOVE children though. lol See my sonnets are not even sonnets. lol I am trying though. I have several books and I need to just sit down and read the directions. :O I taught pre-K for 8 years so if it goes higher than a rhyme, I am done. lol Thank you so much for telling me. ;-) xoxoxox, Red
