Granddaughter

It fills my heart with lots of love, to watch you grow my little dove Even after all this time I am yours, and you are mine. Your laughter brings me happiness when life can be so full of stress. For in my heart, you'll always be, the one that is so close to me. It does not matter where we are It seems you're near, although you're far And when I'm back in touch with you You chase away those lonely blues I try to see things through your eyes How ordinary things surprise And how I view these things a new When I sit and gaze at you How the time seems to fly, the years just seem to tick on by. Each year you age a little more, and your wings grow, so you can soar. Memories are important dear, and life is never crystal clear. As long as I know you'll be okay, the sun will shine just one more day. This was a Collab between myself and Jerry T. Curtis. I just wanted to thank him for all his awesome work on this piece. I hope you all enjoy it, as much as we did writing it.

Ahh!! I have not been blessed with a biological granddaughter, but my daughter has two step-granddaughters so in a way they are my great granddaughters. They are so different from the boys in our lives. I hope that all goes well with this child/ren and that they grow up to be successful and happy in life's endeavors. Sara
