My Grandson's Stocking

~
                                          ~ GRANDSON~
                        your stocking is stacked with building blocks
                         so you may build a path straight up to God
                  there's a timepiece wrapped in a blue ribbon of love
               to weave a journey of timeless purity, in honor of his son
                you'll find a book of wisdom-softly and wisely it speaks
         ~ to fill your soul with noble truth so turmoil can find its peace~
                               at the bottom there's a tiny cross
                              always hold tight to its golden light 
                               if you ever become adrift and lost
                                   in a harsh and starless night
                                            ~GRANDSON~
                                                     ~

So beautifully done, a tribute to your faith in God, and your grandchild. An honor to read, I feel your love for this child.
