To My Granddaughter...

Poem Artwork

My precious Granddaughter is 13
How fast the years go by
No Barbie dolls, or scattered toys
No boo boo's to make her cry
She's embarking on a new life
More grown up she will be
No matter how fast she grows
She'll be a child to me

+++++++++++++++++

Her blue eyes always innocent
To the horrors of this world
If only I could protect her
This precious little girl
I know there'll be laughter
Also tears along the way
Since I can't always hold her hand
Walk with her,  Lord I pray

++++++++++++++++++

From teenage years to adult
Such a long way to go
Let her stop and smell the flowers
Teach her all she needs to know
May she keep her focus on You
Through all the years of her life
May she find joy being a Mother
And happiness being a wife

++++++++++++++++++

I know there'll be laughter
Also tears along the way
Since I can't always hold her hand
Walk with her,  Lord I pray

(C) Linda Hill

I have 3 grand daughters ages 11 to 17. They bring a lot of sunshine into an old mans life. The oldest is an only child and just lost her daddy (my son). "... also tears along the way...."

Nice write, I'll share this with her.

Yes, yes, yes
I can identify.
Mine just turned 18 and she has suddenly
become a woman.
No longer the child,
but now an adult.
A new kind of fun.
I like it.
