Lend Me A Shoulder ~*Grandma Marge*~  Lend me a shoulder, Grandma where softly I can hear the whispers of your heartfelt sighs Where I can dream my dreams setting my wings to fly~ Lend me a poetic moment to send me off in slumber To The Cave of the Good Dreams where happy thoughts wander~ Oh, my sweet Delaney may you always stay on the shoulder of this Grandma for all our days~ *I thank the Lord for the joy of this child* February 27, 2002 ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

When I read the title, my first response was "Lady, it's yours... anytime you need it." *S* But now that I know it's for baby-holding and not for tears, I'm being a good aunt and volunteering BOTH of mine. LOL This is beautiful, Marge... The werk monster would skin me alive if I slipped away to The Cave of the Good Dreams *G*... but you've given my thoughts a happy path to wander. *S* May Delaney forever bask in the love and security she finds waiting in your arms. *S* |

Marge... Grandmothering certainly becomes you! Your poems about Delaney are beautiful, and so is Delaney! Your words are so full of love and tenderness. I can't wait to see more.

I am grinning at the puter screen.....babies are so special....and I am sure grandbabies are wonderful....still waiting on one to spoil....two married daughters and no grandbabies yet come on girls...of course one just got married Sat. as much love as you show in your poems I am sure they feel it a 1000 times over....

Marge- You are just the bestest grandma.. I love this...it's priceless...as are you. Now...pass little Delaney this way...her Auntie Vicky has comfy shoulders too, ya know..LOL. Besides...it's kind of hard to write when you're holding her, isn't it? LOL Love you both, ~Vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truly met the poet. ~vlraynes [This message has been edited by vlraynes (02-28-2002 03:55 AM).] |
