My slice of life today is courtesy of one of my granddaughters who wrote me some poems for my birthday. She read them to me on my birthday, but today, I received them in my text messages. It made me so happy. She’s a spunky and creative 4th grader.
She created her pages with images she found online, knowing I adore flowers. There are two poems below. The 2nd and 3rd images are a single poem.
Thank you to all who make this writing space
a place of safety, support, and beauty.




So very sweet… what a treasure!
BEST. GIFT. EVER. FROM.A.GRANDDAUGHTER!!!!!!Thanks for sharing her lovely written poetry. Her comparison using math (1xmillion) is the perfect way to show the size of her grandma’s heart. Brilliant writing!!! Please tell her this writer was so happy to be inspired by her poetry today!
This is a very special slice. Your Grand daughter is a gifted writer too.
Thank you, Juliette!
I’ll wager it is some of your influence that taught your granddaughter what a precious gift a gift of writing can be.
