Five years old can be
enticed with playmates
and momma’s missing you's.
Love overrides the fear and
finally elicits, ok I will come but
for how many minutes
do I have to stay?
A walk back for three
more big hugs and kisses
and as he is walking away…
I love you grandma
I love you so much
I love you grandma, I love you so so so
much…his momma doesn’t want to hear
doesn’t want to understand
what he is afraid to say
but grandma hears loud and clear
please, please, please don’t leave me
here...

this is why jellybeans has been so quiet...sigh...my little one could use any and all prayers...guess I could use some too...sigh

No little one should have to live in fear... his momma needs to clean out her ears and start listening, whether she wants to hear or not. My heart breaks for you all... and my prayers are without ceasing. Love you, gal...

A powerful write. I know you (and little one) only through this poem, but my prayers are also with you. A catch of heart, this.

Little hearts and lives so precious.
Saying as best as they can...their
feelings and fears....If only we could
always calm their fears....help them
feel secure...

My prayers are with you both..
