You’re in the groove
that crinkles in your grandson’s cheek
your essence moves
in the lightness of his feet
You’re on the ball
in the lightness of his feet
You’re on the ball
of his alert intelligence
and when they fall
his words re-echo your good sense
You’re in the loop
and when they fall
his words re-echo your good sense
You’re in the loop
of hazel when he rolls his eyes
and when they droop
I look at him and realise
You’re in the pink
and when they droop
I look at him and realise
You’re in the pink
that creeps along his sleepy brow
and then I think
the best of you is with us now
and then I think
the best of you is with us now
