A fort for my grandson.


Poem Artwork

 “His Little Fort”

It might be just a little fort

To capture his attention for a while

Perhaps the first of many in his childhood

As he grows…forts will evolve

Into more than a spot for a power nap

A place to get lost in the world

Of make-believe

A chance to escape…letting the imagination

Reveal to him dreams and aspirations

For one day he might be

The president and change the World

But for now…

My one-year-old G-baby slumbers

Under the awning of his fort

Sweet dreams my precious, ‘lil man~

That is so sweet. Forts like this, especially when not built by parents are part of a young man's growing up and being creative with his environment. Let us hope that he doesn't have to seek a fort for protection in the future. Except in history and as underground bunkers, forts are basically obsolete.
