Anayah and I yesterday
Took to the park's way.
Her new tricycle she rode,
A bit nervous she showed,
As she wobbled across the road,
Though I was behind her to goad.
Timid as she is,
Was very apprehensive,
Even of the beautiful butterflies,
Thinking, they would sit on her eyes.
She wanted to pluck a little white flower,
But she couldn't, as the plant stood a bit far.
Yesterday, we both broke the quarantine
As we wished to walk in the sunshine,
On the walkway around the pond,
And sometimes, way beyond!
She didn't touch the swings though desirous,
As her mummy told her of the Corona virus.

@Lodigiana Poetess, You have rightly said that 'with family and friends, doing simple ordinary things' can be a great pleasure. These may serve as a good memory when the members of the family part and go to their respective individual places of residence. Thank you for reading the poem and leaving an appreciative comment here.
Dear Khairul Sahab, such a delightful poem! A walk in the garden in the open sunshine with your grand daughter - Anayah. So pretty and and cute. God bless Anayah and her loving Grandpa! Top scores..... :)
Very nice moments with your wonderfully looking granddaughter. I loved to read it.
I enjoyed joining (surreptitiously [? ] **) you and your granddaughter on your outing. ** sur·rep·ti·tious·ly /ˌsərəpˈtiSHəslē/ adverb " in a way that attempts to avoid notice or attention; secretively" to MyPoemList bri :)
Your grand daughter is quite cute and pretty! I am sure you enjoyed your day out with her. After month's of confinement, it is a pleasure going out for a leisurely stroll in the company of a sweet little 'birdie'! Such occasions are something rare in these days of the pandemic! A lovely little poem on lovely Anayah....!
