Awaken the children
slowly...
carefully...
or they may appear
startled! Feeling
little more than shadows
frantic with light....

she patted her apron
tiny boy crawled inside
she covered him up
hiding him from the cruel world
never letting him go
he was safe

Bereft of sign
Unadorned in birth
Writing in falling steps

A pretty, bashful and quiet child
But when she goes to visit Nanna
She eats too much chocolate and goes wild!

Premium Member Why Do They Not Go In

moon’s tears do not pour
They trail out on top of the water
why do they not go in? asks grandchild
Gram loves it that he thinks she knows everything

Premium Member now I really know love

I thought I knew love
Then I became a mother
So I really knew it
Now as a grandmother
love blows me away

Grandparents are the best
They’ve had time
To get their act together
And now have quality time
To spend with grandkids

Jumper

Judiciously I pick
just the right colours.
Judging by the size of
Jeanie my cute grandchild.
Joy to knit for her in
January chills a
jumper warm as this one.

Grandfather's Suitcase

He left it,
for me, she says. 
Inside it
are his trilby
and the books
we used to read,
and somehow,  his scent of pipe.

Four and a half year old grandson
Climbs up my legs
Into my lap.
Lies down on me like a weighted blanket.
Arms around my neck.
I feel his heart beat.

To be sure, Trump will tweet that again

And can't count the cost
But you will when the grandkids move in!

Gone from my humble home.
Girls have finally grown.
Getting much older now.
Great expectations here.

Great for babysitting.

Premium Member Go Get Grandma Then

Let’s play hopscotch.
You get Mom.
She can’t do it!
Go get grandma then.
Okay!
I hear them and I laugh.
Mom can’t play but I can?
It makes no sense
Yet is completely logical.

Little, lonely, ninety-year-old Grandnan,
From her rusty, cold, garden caravan,
sent grandchild a birthday cake!

Be lonely like Grandnan in Caravan!
