Salute To My Grandson

**A SALUTE TO MY GRANDSON**

Edward,you grow more beautiful 
to Nana, each day!
Now at Saint Mary's High School,
Your education continues in a great,
Christian and traditional, awesome,
American way.

This is the dawn of a new phase of
your life.
I can already see you with children 
and a beautiful wife!
How proud your parents must be
of you.
And Edward, they have always been 
there for you..amazingly true.

How blessed you are...to have such a
loving home.
With your sweet dog, Biscuit, at your side, 
never to roam.
Nana misses the little boy she knew.
But, golly, dear Edward, I see a bright,
shining star in you!

Love you,
Nana

                          8/4/2021

                   Dedicated to Edward.

Tom Cunningham August 5, 2021 at 1:18 AM Lovely tribute to Eddie Pangie. I know how proud of him you all are. Tom Panagiota Romios August 5, 2021 at 8:32 AM Thank you, Tom. We are proud of him, and putting into words meant a lot to me. I know others here who have grandchilren. They know what I mean. I put my soul in my poems and that is the best part. I really appreciate feelings in poems. Forms do not get to me nor being cute. I like reality poetry. Feeling better today! Pangie
