To My Granddaughter
By Amara Carberry
Ah! My granddaughter! My joy.
She lightens my load.
She’s like a new toy.
She smiles at me, ever so slightly.
I grin right back at her but ever more brightly.
She’s the light of my life. I love her dear.
Feels just like Heaven when I draw her near.
Bedtime! Yes, a sweet time of day.
Night, night, precious girl.
Let’s you and I pray.
