Megan

Steps as soft as none at all
Her shadow floats across my wall,
she breathes my name with feather touch
Would I but wake each day as such!

I watched her near and close my eyes
to try and catch her by surprise
She lifts the blanket from my face
I capture her in tight embrace

She squeals responding to her scare
Granddaughter giggles fill the air.
She fights to loose the binding hug
and flees with one last final tug.

So with a sigh I snuggle in;
pull the blanket to my chin;
thank Him for treasures big and small
and the returning shadow on my wall.
Dedicated to my granddaughter, Megan.
Megan & her balloon!
