Blessed from above...

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Dec 31, 2020

"We were so proud...our hearts almost did burst!
for the birth of our Rachael..our grandchild...our first!
I'll always remember that beautiful day,
the year was nineteen ninety....the fourth day of May.
Then for the next five years...it was a drag, looking back..
Grandsons then appeared...because on the sixth of March..we got our Jack!
Four months passed quickly, in the blink of an eye...
then out popped our Charlie....on the thirteenth of July!
So it was another four year long wait....then what do ya know!
we were blessed on September the Twenty seventh...with a little Kopite..our Joe!
Now gifted with four Grandchildren...we were so happy with that tally...
..but on a magical Christmas Eve 2011..a GREAT - Granddaughter was born!..
Yeah it was our lovely Hallie...
So that's it for now, we've been blessed from above,
and when the next ones come along....we will also smother them with our love."
