If I Had

If I had
Poem
Lionel Derbyshire

If I had
this little granddaughter or
that little grandson
of my own
I would award them
a little bucket and spade
and uniform
of their own
with a little
tip up truck
for their litter load.
I would give em
some garden space
of their own 
to plant a little
muddy seed
to start
their little garden
on their own.

Their little
muddy cuddy fingers
to dig and grow pumkin
carrot, strawberry, 
potatoe and tomato
on their own
I would buy for those
little muddy face's
earthworm and compost
to dig and learn
how things grow 
same they do.
and ask them ever
to never forget
their little garden
they grow by their own.

And dearly 
i love would
love to see them
grow to 21.

See You

You were so tired
You couldn’t wait to go lay down
Mom was standing in the kitchen
I was outside locking things up
As you went through the back door
You hollered, See you soon

Moments later the air began to fill with Dread 
Getting thicker with each second of Mom's screams
By the time I got to your side
You laid unmoving, straight as board in your bed
I could hardly bear seeing you that way

As your Grandson dialed 911
My vision blurred and the world disappeared 
All I could see and hear were you
Twenty three Chest compression's, Six breaths later
You opened your eyes and looked into mine
I could hardly bear seeing you so helpless
 
As I held you in my arms
Mom and others began to Pray
I felt each word spoken go through me to you
Flowing through your nephew's Hand that laid upon my shoulder
I couldn’t help but to hold my breath 
And wrap myself around you even tighter than before
I could hardly bear seeing you struggle

No one had to tell us how bad you were 
To life-flight you to St. Jose’s was the only chance you had
I tried to climbed in with you, but they wouldn’t let me
I knew how terrified of heights you were
As they closed those doors I hollered... See you there
See you there Daddy, I’ll see you there
 
There were lines and tubes and doctors everywhere
I stayed up for day’s right beside you in a chair
Mom sat across from me and held your hand
The others circled around us in your room
We could hardly bear seeing you that way Daddy

Alyssa sang "Jesus Loves Me" for you in your little Church
There must have been over a mile of cars parked 
Family and Friends coming to say Goodbye

You'd think after almost 3 years it wouldn't make me cry
It’s almost like you must’ve known 
The night you spoke those words to me
That you’d be heading up to Heaven soon
Not to take a nap
When you closed that door and hollered... See you soon

We'll meet again at those Pearly Gates, Daddy
You have our word.. 
We'll see you there.. We'll see you there

Letters from Camp

I found a bunch of letters
Dated 1993,
Which were written by my son from camp
And forwarded to me.

It was his first time staying there,
For one month, in a bunk.
He was away, with new routines
And he was in a funk.

His letters said he missed us
And was homesick just at night.
Aside from that, it seemed that he
Was managing all right.

A theme that was recurring
Mentioned we should send him stuff.
It sounded like, to him, our parcels
Weren’t filled enough.

This summer, his own son’s at camp - 
First time, a different place,
But now in photos sent
We see his mostly smiling face. 

His emails sound more upbeat
(Just a tiny “miss you” cloud),
Though he can’t request a package
Since today, they’re not allowed.

Premium Member Fear

The last time I went to the beach
Watching my grandson play
He was caught by rogue wave
Was being pulled out of the way

I tried to run through waist deep 
Water, to pull him safely in
Just had grabbed into my clinch
When a horrible a pain did begin

I was sure something humongous
That had bitten me 
Shark had to be his name
I screamed and let go and no one came

I ran to get the child again
Even though I was in terrible pain
Just as I had him in my grip
The thing bit me again

I held on this time 
Dared to not let go
In horrendous pain
I pulled him safely to the shore

When I got out of the water
The pain was even worse
I went back and washed 
In the sea water to try to ease the hurt

We evetually got to a pharmacy
To see what they suggest
He gave me some medicine
With which to keep the places wet

The lesson that I learned from this
Be careful at the beach
Because there could be something lurking
Just under your feet

(It was a jelly fish which I never saw and he stung me twice. I had places on my thighs and 
both lower legs. To this day I have an indented place on my lower leg where I guess the skin 
was digested by the poison.  Two weeks after it happened I shaved my legs and the intense 
pain started again and I had to go to an emergency room.  I had to have shots cortizone and 
dose packs and anti-itch creams and antibiotics.  This was no fun.  I do not have an 
understanding husband and this was one of those hurts that was in the poem "Unloved".)

372 The Prayer of a Warrior's Heir

372.

The Prayer of a Warrior's Heir



Oh Father God, this is the best time to make me a millionaire

This is the greatest moment to be merciful & fair

Merciful to the one being thrown into lion's lair

Fair to the one who cannot escape the snare

Consider this not a temptation nor dare

So with Thy miracles, I can gloriously share!!!



Listen to the Prayer of a Warrior's Heir

The grandson of a soldier allied to those with golden hair

Whose national emblem is still under our care

For their country's our jewel so precious & rare

Whose relation with ours no one can impair

Although our system is corrupt & unfair

Prices going up from veggies to fare

Stomachs are empty, pockets are bare

Yet the aristocrats' banks eternally glare

Glaring with gold they're reluctant to share

Where is your Christianity? Where is your care?

Premium Member The Boy

He grabs the wheel; his eyes are wild
A reckless danger in this child
That comes from never having suffered loss

He points us down the rocky road
My foot, the gas, or he’d explode
And do his best to launch us into space

I grip the frame and hold it tight
Both serious and a delight
I must admit I love to see him grin

Though I pretend a fainting spell
In truth, he drives it rather well
But let’s just keep that fact between ourselves

In no time flat, we do arrive
All limbs intact, all have survived
Already planning when we’ll drive again

Premium Member A Day At the Beach

I went to the beach one June day
Took my grandsons to swim and play
Told them not to swim out of reach
One June day I went to the beach.

We had ice cream to cool us down
Sun was hot we were turning brown
Such a great day it felt like a dream
To cool us down we had ice cream. 

A boy with a kite flew it high
We watched it dancing in the sky 
It darted left it darted right 
Flew it high a boy with a kite. 

Big grey clouds came the sky turned black 
Picked up our things and headed back 
The day cut short it was a shame
The sky turned black big grey clouds came.

Raised up by earlier than early spring					
the daffodils thrust their honking horns				
at the promise of this newness, earned again 				
by slumbering through last year’s losses.			
Zach placed them in a deep red bowl	 				
(one Mama Sal fancied for its shade					
and reasonable price at the Goodwill Store)				
and watered their toes to keep them dancing.				
I will not have to climb poetic hills					
to hear these honking daffodils.					
I know preserving short-lived thrills					
breeds sadness when they soon fade;					
that’s one of life’s favorite drills.					
But predicted snow might have chilled				
them sooner if my grandson hadn’t cut				
them in the sunlight before the storm. 				
They will survive a day or two, I hope,				
buoyed up by the beauty of the bowl.	
I will greet them every time I pass,						
the yellow honkers in the deep red glass.				
Then I’ll tote them to the compost bin				
where they may blend to foster life again.				
How charmed I was that, when Zach					
brought the blooms, I could give my celiac				
boy gluten free cookies from the spring rite				
of the girl scouts outside the Safeway store,				
the rite Mama Sal helped run years before.				
May he savor them a day or maybe more,				
suffering not one jot, not an inkling of ills.				
Thanks, Zach, for the honking daffodils.
