Notes About The Poem

This was written to my youngest granddaughter who is pursuing her music and entertaining interests in college. 

So Proud of You Lily

So Proud of You Lily

So proud of you Lily
To us always a star
With an angel's voice for singing
That's just part of who you are

Excelling now in college
As you have for all your years
You've always entertained us
You are music to our ears

The world can be your apple
You may take a bite or two
Believe as much in your own self
As we believe in you

Wrote this to remind you
That though we're Gram and Pop
We'll always be your biggest fans
And that will never stop
