New Family.

Goldfinch60



There she was this little girl,

Brought to us by Mum and Dad,

Our sixth grandchild.

The pictures we had seen

Did not do her justice,

This beautiful baby.

Five months since her birth,

And here she was with us,

Smiling at us all,

Smiling at all around her.

She looked all over

Absorbing knowledge,

Her face full of wonder.

Her new life of intrigue,

Her new life of wonder.

Her amazing parents

So very happy,

So very happy together,

So very happy with their child.

A complete family

Who will travel life’s highway

With joy,

And with love,

The love that shines out from them,

Out from them all.

 

To them all I give them my love,

I give them my time,

I give them the knowledge

That The Spirit will be with them,

And My Spirit will always be with them

Caring for all they do,

As their lives move forward,

Move forward into the light.
