The fortunate one’s. And a beautiful Alisa Fineman song.
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
A Summer poem. 
The fortunate one’s..
Lovely be, a day can be. When the sun kiss your face and the lake is near.
The long Summer days, blessings for us who love the free wildflowers and the deep forest.
The fortunate one’s, we are.
Who love reading books by the Lake St. Clair, the children laughter and free days.
I try to be like my grandparent. Take the grandchildren to the cider mill, field trips and long days at the lakes on the hot days.
My grandchildren favorite days. Mystery road trips, visiting the Lake Huron and Lake Superior. Roam the small towns in the thumb and finding shiny rocks for our rock garden.
I am a better grandfather than father. I learned too late. The children grow so quickly, like weeds in a yard.
I hope I taught my children, my grandchildren to love the water, be kind to the free animals. To roam the free forest and be kind to nature.
Be the fortunate one’s.

How to learned a little too late but I’m so very grateful for the chances with the grandbabies and I hope I hope so hard that my children remember simply through me with the grandchildren how much I truly enjoyed them as well before their minds became grown and their memories were cluttered and muddled I miss my children enjoying me as much as I enjoy them I sure do love my grandbabies and any moments we have together 🫂

Me too dear Nikki. I learn too late. You must make time for the grandchildren. I worked and worked. Missed time with my children. Maybe, all of us become better grandparent than parent. We learn patience.

Yes I agree I can look back and have regrets about all the hours I worked or I can look forward and rejoice about all the hours I now have 🤗🤗🤗
