Tinker Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 For My Granddaughter You can't ever give up, it's not allowed your value far too precious to ignore. The path ahead remains unploughed, abandoned is your gentle life before. Without preparing for the arduous climb the journey has begun. It will be tough. Right off, a boulder has appeared, no crime, the trail you've chosen, barren, steep, and rough. The first of many painful lessons stings your heart. The ecstasy of love now pain. I know you feel the ache of broken wings, believing you will never love again. Take time to see the beauty that is you. Believe that you can start once more anew. ~~Judi Van Gorder - A Shakespearean Sonnet 1 Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger11 Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Wise advice Judi. Experience is a tough classroom! Muchly enjoyed the sonnet and the emphasis on self-worth. Bw Phil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry A Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 Spoken as a loving Grandmother. I hope you find a way to save these little gems, it could mean much, later in life to your granddaughter, at the very least, the measure of your love and care for her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
