Grandsons..partially edited

Their mother died,  my daughter alive 

fell in love.  They in a life that included loss, 

knew love.  I benefit playing games, 

reading stories.  Do you want to walk with

me, bike, hey Gg ( grandma gloria) look, 

see me,  kiss my baby brother, where

is he first question always, 

they know love and loss are part of the whole.

Mommy Heidi dead.

 Mama Lora, Grandma Jan, Grandmother 

Gloria, brought together by loss and love, 

taught  the details, continuing to be taught the details by 

boys, whose lessons began early, 

too early, I think.      yet       the benefits to 

me    to the world   

 Immense 

Could ever I have imagined so great a life of

blessings,  unanticipated,   Grief and loss too

much to carry 

on,  I sometimes thought

so great can loss be. 

"A small child shall lead them" 

And so I go on...
