Isaiah
A button nose and big brown eyes
turned to Grandma in surprise.
Now a giggle or maybe a sigh,
he's a big boy now, he won't cry.
Ten wonderful years have flown away
wish my grandson could always stay.
But then it might not be as much fun,
our time wouldn't be such a special one.
This year for the first time he took the train
for a visit too short, then he was gone again.
But in my heart he's always near
just like his Dad, right in here.
