Miss Vivian
Miss Vivian, my heart is full
to stay with you a while,
to see your precious cherub face,
your impish little smile.
You have your father’s countenance,
your mom’s full head of hair -
Indeed, both fearful, wondrous made,
exquisitely, with care.
Our times with you are far too short,
the separation, mean,
for though my heart is bound to yours,
too many miles between.
But I find solace in this truth:
He’s never far from you.
your every moment’s known to Him,
and that will see me through.
----------
on seeing my granddaughter
for the first time last year;
going out to see here again soon!
