Poem - My million dollar Grandson.

My million dollar Grandson.
 copied 23rd March, 2005.


                                He came to me – as blond as could be.

                                Twinkling eyes, - blue of the sea,

                                  Aged three and three bits, – every bit a boy.

                                  Ready to play with every kind of toy.  

                                         My million dollar Grandson.



                               We played with trains- he played with a car.

                                Jig saw pieces spread wide and far.

                                   Story books in wild array.

                                   My blue-eyed blond was happy at play.

                                       

                                   Leaning Towers built at speed.

                                   A dervish dance to mark the deed.

                                    He twisted, turned, and rolled around.

                                    Now jumping high, now carpet bound.

                                     

                                  The sun went down-the moon was bright.

                                  He played as if he would play all night.

                                     From where I lay I decided to peep,

                                     Gently smiling he was fast asleep.

                                           My million dollar Grandson.
