(For my granddaughter, Nicole) A smile bright beams from your face As tiny fingers work each lace You scream with glee “I tied my shoes!” I’m filled with awe, begin to muse. Will life’s each challenge be thus met With courage firm and not much fret; Will wonderment e’er fill your soul; What lies ahead for you, Nicole? This is my heartfelt hope, my prayer May troubles sore not be your care; May child’s dreams for you come true; A kindly lot is wished for you. Let innocence and you ne’er part; Find loveliness in ev’ry heart; Seek beauty in each passing face; Greet each new dawn filled with His grace. When grandkids of your very own Cause muse so gentle to be sown Long years ahead when I’m not there Recall my love and Mom-Mom’s prayer. …As tiny fingers work each lace A smile breaks across my face. 10/99 Another "oldie", along with my undying gratitude to Martie for the perfect title!

Denise, this may be an oldie, but it sure is wonderful. It so tugged at my heartstrings even though I'm not a grammy yet. It tugged as a reminder my own kids and the joy and satisfaction they felt when they accomplished this very difficult task. A beautifully written 'hope' for your granddaughter. Hugs, Marti "I am not afraid of STORMS for I have learned how to sail my SHIP." |
