This coming summer
I have visited

"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart)I am never without it"

imparted, nurtured to breed.
Thanks so much, Lola*

Moon Bloomed
After noon, bloomed the moon,
Like my grandma' s curved comb;

Grandmom
She holds a place within my heart
That no one else can fill.
Just the thought of her makes me smile,
It always has and always will.
Her smile will brighten up your day,
Like an angel, she's so pretty.
Her laughter makes me giggle.
She's funny and she's witty.
The twinkle in her eyes
Is brighter than the stars above her.
She's a special
