Grandma’s Love

You gently nuzzled at my neck
I felt the softness of your sweet breath.
With my gnarled hands I held you close
and whispered gently in your ear.

Stories from a past you will never know
but is the foundation from which you will grow
all my hopes and prayers for all your years
are whispered gently in your ear..


My day is coming to an end
my winter has begun
the light in my eyes has dimmed
as your life is yet to begin.

Forever as my life lingers on
I will remember the kiss your mind
gave to mine

Somewhere I have an idea for a story somewhere I just can’t find it right now.  It isn’t in any of my normal online stashes
