WHILE I’M AWAY
While I’m away,
Though I’m not your pappy,
I pray you’ll stay
Healthy and happy! 😊

YOUR LITTLE TWEET!
YOUR LITTLE TWEET!
I’m just hurt,
I’m not bitter,
You never mention me
On twitter,
After all, I’m sweet,
And unlike any other,
I was your first “tweet,”
Cuz you are my mother! 😊
BEING A GRANDPA!
BEING A GRANDPA!
Being a grandpa
Is really grand!
It’s the grandest thing
Which God has planned!
It’s like God has given me
A second glimpse,
Of my own darling,
Little imps!
I can’t have enough,
If I only have four,
I’ll always dream
Of having four more!
And grandpa visits,
End like this sweet poem,
You sugar ‘em up,
And send ‘em home! 😊
MY GRANDPA’S LOVE
MY GRANDPA’S LOVE
I’ll always remember Grandpa,
A kind and gentle man,
He loved me, just like Grandma,
He was my biggest fan,
We played with toys,
Sang songs, read books,
He gave such joy,
Many laughs and looks!
He helped name my dolls,
He took me places,
We had a ball,
Many happy faces!
And though he’s gone,
I’ll always see,
My grandpa’s love,
Lives on in me! 😊
HOME FOR CHRISTMAS!
HOME FOR CHRISTMAS!
I don’t want to go home for Christmas,
There is no peace at home,
I’d rather visit Panama’s Isthmus,
Or drive dog sleds up at Nome,
It’s not I don’t love my family,
All my uncles, aunts, and their brats,
But I just want some peace this year,
That is where I’m at,
But I love my nephews and niece,
And enjoyed their laughter in the past,
Maybe I shouldn’t choose peace,
They’re growing up so fast,
And my aunt’s fruitcake “brick,”
Oh, I love her so,
But what’s her recipe trick,
It’s a big “ho ho NO!”
And then, there’s my dear grandma,
Such bad health in the past,
Who knows, now, if I don’t go,
This could be her last,
So, yes, I’ve changed my mind,
You will find me this year at home,
I choose love over peace,
Maybe, next year, I’ll choose Nome! 😊
