Writer's Workshop: Write a Poem to the Little Boy In Your Life


Grandson
Everyone wants to be first…that is, until you are
The first grandson…the first nephew…the first.
You are loved beyond measure, sometimes too much!
Too many wet kisses, too many games to play, too many things to do.
Everyone wants to be with you.
Come play with me Grandson. Come read to me Grandson.
Never is there time to just sit, and snuggle, and talk.
So much to do, when visits happen, and so soon till they all have to leave.
First, you have to be patient.
With your family…with Grammy’s and Papas and Uncles and Great Grannies
Who just want to do all with you.
With sisters and Mommys and Daddys who want the best for you.
You are the example, the leader…ever level headed and responsible
Hang in there, sweet Grandson
Our first love, the one that made us who we are.
We treasure you…first
Grandson

Oh what a beautiful message! And that first... I definitely get that with Mister Man (although my parents do spread the love around with Little Miss, too)! Enjoy your grandchildren.
