A Grandmother's Love
Eyes wide and
innocent,
blue with sparkles
of mischief
shining through.
I see you,
angel girl.
You see me and run,
straight into my arms.
You shout my name,
"Grandma! Grandma!",
as I scoop you up.
If I could, I would
give you the world.
A sloppy kiss
on my cheek
and a hug.
"Love you, Grandma!"
"Love you, too, baby!"
Off you run
to explore
your world with
curiosity
and wonder.
I am putty
in your hands.
