Dancing With My Grandson Charlie

Open Link Night at the dVerse Poets Pub ~ Sanaa is our host and as she reminds us ~ Anything Goes!!  

This is a poem I first published in March, 2021

  

My hand rests in his

we twirl together

his smile a melody

I have known forever


I follow, as always I have 

As always I will

someday my feet will falter

someday I will let go

but not tonight


tonight we dance

to the melody of a wish

I hold deep in my bones

that life is kind to him


that love finds him whole

that his road is long, never lonely

as music swells, his eyes shine

I gather myself into the moment


knowing he will carry this dance

long after I am gone
