A slight voice signaled, “y’all come look,” and
a sight we did see cloaked not in a nook, but
standing at the entrance of the bedroom door
in GrandMa Ma’s Boots
She’s two years old, boots up to her thighs
can’t take a step, just swaying from side to side
as if a breeze was ’round her
Gently touching and coaxing
her to move: confident, toddler speech boasting
no stress, no presence of any strain standing
in GrandMa Ma’s Boots
No fear, only a smile, her thrill
to her Grandma’s boots are easy to fill because
they are filled with love
Scripture Theme:
Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory
of children is their fathers. Proverbs 17:6

Rightly so lady. And when I’m in the kitchen, I constantly see their smiles via the works of their hands, pinned with magnets on the refrigerator. Loving my grans—forever in my heart.
