Grandchildren…Real Wealth

By: Poppy Fee

 

 

In a rainbow of colors they fill up my world

Three girls sweet and coy and one little boy

Jamie Lee, Lily, Isobel and Patrick

All are my grandchildren and my greatest joy

 

I may have no money, no investments

No stocks, no bonds, no diamonds or gold

But I have their laughter and their smiles

To warm my heart when I must grow old

 

So I won’t spend my wealth lightly

I’ll treasure each little kiss and each hug

And when they all call me Poppy

You’ll see a big smile on my mug…

Fee,
I understand exactly how you feel! My Grandchildren are the light of my life. On a sad day they can bring the sun back in with their sweet smiles and hugs. I treasure each moment with my babies.

Many blessings,

How wonderful for your grandchildren that they have a Poppy who cherishes them - it will imprint their core and help shape who they become. You know true wealth and each time they look back on their times with you, they will too.
