To “Our” Home

A prayer this afternoon,
on the changing of our days
that the language would evolve
speaking of our home,
not your home;
that we would be welcoming
that she would feel
this is her home too
not a place to stay
but a place to live
as long as she wants
part of one family

In Grandma’s Lap

A truly special place
of safety, of security,
of love, nestled in
Grandma’s lap she lay
warm and secure,
feeling love, contentment,
in Grandma’s lap.
