Grandma's Wishes

Grandma’s Wishes


Though Grandma was always wishin’,
this Christmas she made it come true.
Fixin’ a ride up on Blixen
and dressin ‘em both up in blue.

She wished for Dad to be happy
with a smile to fix up Mom’s fear,
and a tree…made up and snappy
with others in family near.

Jesus, she wished as our first thought,
as the Light we bring our this year,
to shine with the Love we’ve been taught.
Let Christmas, worldwide, be of Cheer.

I had to review your little list or poetry and I see you ARE mainly a rhymer then? Good wishes for the new year and for your year to come with Soup.

I do mostly rhymes, but from time to time I write free verse and some of the other non-rhymning forms... Thank you for reviewing. Greatly appreciate your comments. Janet
