| Posted by Glenn Currier on 11/29/04 at 03:14 PM Oh, dear grandmother, what a wonderful poem about the new life in your world. The repetition in your poem captures the rhythm of the baby's peaceful heart as well as the symbiosis between you and your grandchild. I also like the connection with nature and the great metaphors. Lovely and well done poem, Alex. |
