Granddaughters

GRANDDAUGHTERS I am boxing your Disney and Elmo tapes Except the priceless memories I will store in my heart forever. You, my sweethearts Have the power to command me When you were two and three: Play “Mulan” and “Elmo” next in line. Now, you are seven and nine Have discovered computers: Web sites, I-pod, wi-fi, DS games, u-tubes High tech gadgets, etc. I am grateful, you Still have time, climb-up In bed with me An exclusive date on Friday nights Recite your crafty, innocent poems Gentle songs that lullaby.
