Greatness Through Generations
On a stool she sat at Greatfather's
feet,
He feeding her ice cream as a
birthday treat.
Two years old sitting up straight,
to catch each yummy spoonful,
Mouths open both of them.,
as the ice cream goes in.
Sun shining brightly in the bay
window, leaving both in a cool-
shaded silhouette .
A random picture taken,
turns a sweet gesture into
a loving memory for the two
of them.
Immortalized now forever in time,
in a large frame,
on a table beside the big green
chair ,
Only he sits in.

This is a real picture my
grandson took ,shaded out the color,
framed it and gave to my husband.
A family treasure forever.
