Poem Artwork


Little People

Footsteps on the staircase
handprints on the walls
tiny fingers dripping things
up and down the halls.

Voices all in unison
calling out my name
arguing and pointing
and saying who’s to blame.

Dishes in the sink
couch cushions on the floor
clean and dust, then fall in bed
tomorrow will bring more.

Those times are etched in memory
the children now are grown
but I’ll gladly have it all again
when the grandkids all come home.

Once again you take the little things and make them a thing of love. There are two ways grandparents express themselves when hearing of a visit from the little ones. OH, GREAT and oh, great. You have expressed eloquently which you are.
