Premium Member Icicles for Tears
Memories tattoo my brain like an artist I miss loved ones passed and the last Time I saw each one is frozen Like icicle tears swelling brown eyes Last time I saw her alive she Was full of joy eating favorite foods Planning her life despite breast cancer Nothing stopped her from dreaming Not even death Final time I...

Finding His People
Henry found his people And they’re up there on the stage, Where with the audience, they all Can magically engage. We’ve watched him since his day of birth And marveled at his gifts, Delighted at the many ways He’d give our spirits lifts. He’s had to travel many paths In search of where he’d fit And middle school has been the place Where all the fires...

Staying One Stop Ahead
Cool grandson is unmoved by convention. Place has no value except as it connects to young imagination. My elf ladders are not missing; Spiderman and Robin need a bridge to cross the creek that runs under 'Cool's' bed. There are no buildings there to climb upon. One busy mind fixated on need ingenuity moves forward. He is now outside; I see my garden hose inside arched thru a window. One speedy...

Premium Member Where's the Respect for Your Elders?
A long time ago when our first grandson was young - I think around the age five or six - there was a phone call we made to him to say hello and talk with him for kicks. We'd tried to make it short because of his attention span. He’s a kid who later became a not-too chatty young man! I...

Premium Member Untainted
My little grandson, sweet, exuberant, and untainted by unspoken rules that say to keep a social distance, ran up to a lone gentleman seated at the restaurant we left, touched the old man’s knee, and blew a kiss ‘bye. ...

X-Marks-the-Spot
X-Marks-the-Spot is a tickling game Which is traced upon someone’s bare back. In childhood, we played it and often it caused A goose-bump filled giggling attack. My kids got the treatment when bathtime arrived And my grandson when he was a tot, But it’s been a while since I’ve gotten the chance To engage in some X-Marks-the-Spot. Yet I came upon Henry, eleven...

A boy named Dustin
In a quiet town where shadows blend, A boy named Dustin learned to mend, Born to a mother, young and alone, With dreams in her heart, but a heavy stone. No father’s hand to guide his way, But a grandfather’s love would light the day, With wisdom deep as...

Premium Member Summer Spin
Yellow, a sunny color - bittersweet brightness of life. Wild dandelion its flower, brilliant in grandson’s eyes. Watching the Summer spin, fragile twirling and bend. Pandemic’s Kindergartner plucks bouquet - tenders it to grandma. Isolation had its moments - streets with no cars, chasing a lemon butterfly. “Oh, it flied away.” His skateboard in pause, as our lives were, but in home’s vase, weeds quickly passed away. ...

The Icicles Dripping
I’m watching the icicles dripping, Reminded of ten years ago, When I held up my grandson to watch them, All the things then that I couldn’t know. How he’d soak up so much he was learning And prove to be clever and smart; How his joy in our moments together Would tattoo him right onto my heart. How he’d love to hear...

Premium Member Talking to Your Self
Today my older grandson, the four year old, Asked his mom, “Who are you talking to when you’re talking to yourself?” And it made me think a few things; One, that the kid is bright and has a bright future Two, that I sure never thought such things at four Three, that it is a solid basis for a life...
