My Grandaughters Eyes

I see in my granddaughter's eyes
The joy of childhood
Her innocence 
Her wonder
The laughter
The love of all she has found

I hope she sees in my eyes
My absolute love
My joy
The wonder
The laughter
The love of all she has found

I pray she never sees in my eyes
The struggles thru the years
The tears
The setbacks
The worry
The back breaking work to provide
For her grandmother
Her mother
The family

I hope her eyes always see
I am her grandpa
I love her
She is my world
My life
