Logan Is a Sweet Character
I loved him at first sight.
Blue eyes and a subtle smile,
Stole my heart in one night.
We snuggled for a long while.
The wait had finally ended.
Long, thin, and lanky –
Perfection had descended.
Even though, at times cranky.
I saw innocence in those eyes.
A pure trust I must fulfill.
Purring like a kitten, then cries.
To know him at last was a thrill.
He is a blessing, a gift so rare,
Brought me joys and sorrows.
We have years, yet to share.
Always, I hope for tomorrows.
I thank God for his curiosity.
He laughs even when he is sick.
Grabs hold of every adversity.
Adding entertainment to the mix.
He goes to daycare, I must confess.
Then, the perpetual motion begins.
Active? Yes. Cooperative? Yes.
That grandson of mine is full of grins.
