Look At You

Look at you looking at me My only son’s one son A very cute mini version of me A new generation to carry on my name Your whole life ahead of you Look at you looking at me Eyes glowing with possibilities Your mind a clean blank slate Our future in your generation’s hands And here you are with your whole hand Wrapped around my baby finger Look at you looking at me The perfect smile of innocence Radiant and in real time Don’t know who is more in awe The grandpa or the child Published in my 24-page photo/anthology ~RANDOM MUSINGS VOL.3~ 2020 AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on February 16, 2020 for contest LOOK AT YOU sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - RANKED 3RD

Feel the enjoyment, Gauthier. Four weeks back I was blessed with a grand-daughter. God bless you.

Grandchildren are a gift to our age to cheer us up and carry us to more exercising.
