Grand Babies
These children
with their red apple cheeks
and runny noses
fill my heart to the brim!

They frolic like puppies
turning end over end
again and again and again.

How innocent and clever
their eyes are...full of love
for Grandma
and her cookie jar.

They joyfully exclaim
throwing their arms open wide
when I arrive
and
give exquisitely sweet
kisses and hugs and waves
goodbye.

My oh my oh my !
Grandma's eyes
are never dry!
