A Grandson by Una Kelly

A Grandson
A Nana
Me

I read recently that a grandmother’s
Responsibility
Is to pass on the traditions and lore of the family.

I am in possession of family lore
I swim in momentos
Being only ... enriches

I quake at the thought
I jump to the ready

I will visit for three full days
One for each trimester

I will bear gifts as the Magi
What will the wisest be?

Adagio was adage
The Magi story
Is our story

Life continues
Life goes on

On either side of water
We keep our promises
