Children and grandchildren
Each fills precious treasure
Hug this “Circle of Life”
Family time’s pleasure
Watching young daughters grow
Teaching lessons of love
Taking delight each day
Dad, where’s my softball glove?
Time moves much too quickly
Each day shares its rewards
Daughters become women
“Circle of Life” records
Transforming life’s landscape
Mastering how to crawl
Cherishing grandchildren
Grandpa, will you play ball?
Robust “Circle of Life”
Family roster grows
Memories made each day
Lifetime’s delightful rose

Some of the best poems are written from from the heart. Such is the case with this poem; created from just a thought about family and its blessings. My wife and I have been blessed with five daughters between our Montana and Ohio families. Our grandchildren now number ten. Our own “Circle of Life’ has indeed been a blessed one.
Priceless ❤️
