For Alba And Nola
For Alba and Nola this is for you.
Looking beautiful, dressed in blue.
Nola 2…Sister Alba now a ‘big 4’!
Standing outside their front door.
Matching clothes, I find that sweet.
Same white sandals on their feet!
With all my heart, I love them so.
Now my love has some place to go.
This is what I’ve been waiting for.
A new chapter in my life for sure!
A chapter, I cherish night and day.
I live for those days we get to play!
'Best Grandad ever' Alba called me.
And that’s what I’ll always try to be!
I’ll see you soon for more playtime.
More laughs more fun, rain or shine!
Silly Grandad

Thank you for the kind (and very true!) comments. They are an inspiration indeed! I have wrote about 40 poems about them already, I might put them in a little booklet to remind them and myself what a magical time we've had so far!
