Oh To Be 21

OH to be 21


Your 21st has finally come,

And now your journey has begun,

To say I’m proud is simply not enough,

Of the incredibly intelligent, independent,

Wonderful, wise women you’ve become,

My descendant, I’m just so chuffed,

Academically you’ve excelled at each and every hurdle,

We will encourage you every step with our supportive family circle,

You make us the proudest family that can be

As you progress through life finding Chloe,

Chloe the name of a Greek goddess Demeter,

The perfect name for you such a beautiful creature,

My heart bursts with pure pride,

My perfect granddaughter, I’ll always be by your side,

Through all the ups and downs we face in life,

I cannot wait to see you dressed in white,

You will make a beautiful wonderful wife,

The worlds your oyster filled with pretty pearls,

Success is in your nature, my gorgeous girl,

You’re destined for greatness that we can all see,

I know you will be the very best you can be,

Promise to live your life to the fullest that can be,

See all that you can see, be who you want to be,

Do all that you can do, love all that love you for you,

Be happy healthy and always have hope,

See the world and travel the globe,

However always remember the love you have at home,

It's unconditional eternal there’s nowhere like home,

My dear Chloe your life has just begun,

We are so proud, grandad me, Olly dad and mum,

All my love my grand granddaughter love from your Grandmother.
