Tears rolling down his soft cheek Tears rolling down my wrinkled cheek Please Grandma, can't I go home with you Your daddy didn't say it is my turn for you Warm arms around my neck Wet cheek against wet cheek Neither little boy nor grandma Understand as we wait for our day |

JM, I know I'm not alone but I don't understand any more than he does. I guess Butterflies have to be tougher than this old brood mare. nakdthoughts, yes, a pain we can't get to! |
