"Duster" - Grandson

His tousled hair does shimmer
His boyish grin does shine
The freckles on that nose
Will fade away in time

Girls, parties, dates galore
Move over trucks and trains
Laughter, tears and broken hearts
All part of growing pains

And as I watch this Grandson
My heart catches a brief while
Remembering when his parent
Was still my little child

He's growing right before my eyes
Confident, true and fine
To be a wonderful young man
I'm proud this Grandson is mine.
