Granny

Gone from my humble home.
Girls have finally grown.
Getting much older now.
Great expectations here.
Granny in waiting me.
Good knitting baby things.
Great for babysitting.

A delightful Pleiades, Jean! It almost seems like you are sending hints in your daughters' directions. Being a granny is great! Congrats on your placement! Blessings, Kim

Thank you Laura. I am just on my way to Dublin to visit two of them. We are going to see the Dirty Dancing show. I miss them a lot.

Sunlight, you have just lit up my night! I deleted a poem earlier this evening because my humour is not always funny. So this positive affirmation means a lot to me. Thank you.

Goodness gracious not a good as you Tim. It is rare to find a man who can express emotion like you do in your poems. I know I tease, but the depth of your feelings do not escape me.
