Wonder Pranced Forth

Wonder pranced forth
Took me by surprise
Whirled me and twirled me
Shaking me out of my doldrums

Enthusiasm threw me in the air
Imagination caught me 
Joy laughed at my confusion
Delight shook me out of my mediocracy

All happened as I gazed
at my new grandson
The world was once again
a place for happiness and excitement.

A new mindset
A new day
A new baby.
Just the attitude adjustment I needed.

How lovely ~ a new grandson for you to adore and have fun with and who will bring you such pleasure each time you see him. With kindest thoughts Ann xx Login to Reply Caren Krutsinger Date: 11/12/2020 9:08:00 PM Thank you Ann. I have four grandsons and six granddaughters, and I feel the same way about all of them. They range from age 5 to age 20.

Kim Rodrigues Date: 11/11/2020 8:19:00 PM Nice! A grandkid will do it! Login to Reply Kim Rodrigues Date: 11/13/2020 4:34:00 AM I agree. So many things make you wonder why the6 just can’t see God. Blindness I think. Caren Krutsinger Date: 11/12/2020 9:09:00 PM A grandchild makes me wonder how some cannot believe in God?
