You're having a grand child writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt Most people describe happy moments simply. In reality, they are complicated. We cry at weddings. Why? Because we are happy for them. If we are older there is another reason. They picked the person who is going to help them through life. No life is uncomplicated. This person has to be the one who will love them through the difficult times, not just the celebration of the wedding. We so hope that the choice is right. Now, we are becoming Grand Parents. What a joy. What a big step in life. Before the world became so mobile, our children lived down the street. Our grand children could walk to our house. Now we sometimes live thousands of miles from the grand children we want to know. We talk to them on face time and hope that they know who we are as they grow up and we see them a couple times a year. Write about yourself as a grand parent, whether you are nearby or far away, that little face that looks like a child you remember. Just write. |

Our Daughter is due to have their first child in two weeks!
A huge thank you goes out to BrooklynMyra of fanart review for her marvelous picture entitled, appropriately: "Almost born"
Since I've been asked by readers if I know the gender of our pending grandchild, the answer is yes, Brelynn is a girl!
I've also been asked about the changing of font and bolding certain words. When I listen to other people read this poem before posting, they seem to have problems with the flow because their emphasis was not on the right words. When the emphasis was placed on the bold words the flow for the first time reader dramatically improved.
The phrase "en route" is sometimes pronounced "root" & other times "rout"
The Rhyming Scheme is ABCB.
The Syllable Count is 8 Per Line.
