Grateful doesn’t begin to cover it

Really, the warm wondrous

Aura shining from my grandkids’ eyes,

Their innocence, their sense of awe,

Imagination, magic door to thrilling

Tender worlds of endless marvel,

Unbound promise, splashy spacious

Dreams – past and future selves and souls, may  

Every true and lovely, loving thing be yours.

The painting is by my son-in-law’s mother, Nan, who was a gifted artist and a wonderful person. The title is “Those who came before”.
