--Holding Back the Tears--






              SONG FOR THE BOY


         Where is my toddler grandson?

         Time, the thief, took him away.

         Oh...please do send him back!

                    ********

Innocent as God's Spring earth's
flowers.

With whom I was blessed to spend 
so many bright hours!

We giggled and laughed in irridescent 
rainbowed showers.

He danced openly like Justin Bieber, 
in our Wal Mart for hours.

Then, we'd shop for delightful toys.
Like Hot Wheel cars and more!

You stole my heart, little boy!
I miss you so much, I won't be coy!

My salty tears won't bring back time.
Nana loves you and pens of you in rhyme!
