You Inspire Me



Hi there,

I've shared my poem with One Shot Wednesday.




Grandma’s stories
Tucked up in bed
The way she loved me
The things she said



First true love
The touch of your hand
Sitting on benches
Making big plans



Family and children
Inspire me each day
I see myself in them
In a different way



Woman full grown
My time to shine
The simple life
Inspires me just fine


Be kind to each other.
Love KB

  7. There is nothing quite like family to stir the heart, and to move us to thought...sound advice, I should say, and thanks to you for sharing with us such warm memories.

  19. KB -- it's really really a treat getting to know more about you and your life.

    And funny, my current poem is about a grand-motherly type. There is no one to replace these sweet ladies.
