Saturday Mornings
Sipping hot cocoa
Rubbing Sleepy eyes
Holding my Grandkids at my side
This is my favorite way to spend Saturday morn
No need to hurry, we have all day
Lets take it easy, let time slip away
No meetings to go to
No time clock to punch
We can sit here all day
At least until lunch
Just talking and singing
With a tickle or two
Loving every moment
But there always to few
Trying to stretch our visit into two days not one
But as the sunsets Mommy and Daddy come
Its time to go home, we kiss everyone goodby
We zip up jackets and tie up shoes
And wave good bye, Please come back soon!!
I really, really like this
I really, really like this one. A couple of spelling errors kind of snag the eye during the first read, but nonetheless, the poem's emotional resonance is really excellent. As a Grandfather myself, I have watched my wife experience much of this with our grandchildren.
