A Grandchilds Wedding Poem by Audrey Heller

It's hard to believe, the time has
come, your grandchild, is getting
married! When I still can remember,
her mother, that I carried. Where has
the time gone? Has it been so long
ago? I look at myself in the mirror, but
my age, doesn't show! I still feel young,
in spite of the fact, that I'm not. As I look
around me, I feel lucky and very pleased,
with what I've got! I'm quite fortunate, to
have been able to come this far. I've seen
my children, through thick and thin. Now,
I'm reaping in the rewards, with each new
phase, I'm in. I look forward, to the next
step, to the time when a great grandmother,
I'll be. Knowing, my life, will then be complete.
For I'm going to be around for that, just you
wait and see!
