My 9th grandchild was born yesterday. I’ve been watching his big sister and enjoying every moment. Just thinking about all my grandkids makes me teary with joy nd inspired this poem. The pictures are all mine.
The child of my child
Once removed yet somehow
Closer than possible
Unexplainable connection
The essence of eternity
Your construct holds a part of me
Your being holds the heart of me
I’ve got this
This time around
No pressing burden
I’ve conquered most self-battles
And have so much more to offer
Your construct holds a part of me
Your being holds the heart of me
Time is my friend now
A chance to bring you joy
Implant a precious memory
Infuse a piece of my peace
To help you face the world
