Wow, this is excellent! I love what you say and how you say it! I love the rhyming and choice of rhymes! I love everything about this but I can't give a sixer I don't have to give! The flow and meter are super! And the rhyming divine!
The picture captures the essence of the spirit of the piece! Along with of course the subject of parents! Thank you so much for posting this, and I hope you win the contest!
Have a wonderful day and life since I don't know who you are!

This is a very well-written poem. You captured all the feelings that happen when you first see your baby. We love our kids more than words can express. And if we know how deeply we love them. Couldn't love more but then your kids turn around and give you a grandbaby. There is nothing to compare to hearing "I love you, Gamma!

    That's good to hear. My daughter is due to have my first grandchild in March and I'm so excited. She's expecting a little girl and I can't wait to be called grandma. Thank you so much for reading my poem. :)

A great poem about what a parent is. I haven't had the chance to be a parent. I enjoyed reading this poem. Enjoy life and enjoy the little things that matter most.

Beautiful poem! Lovely cadence and rhyme scheme. The image you chose to illustrate your carefully chosen words adds so much to create a wonderful overall effect. We are lucky when our adult children care for us. What a blessing indeed!

It is a great responsibility and as you say, it comes with the rewards of love and the joy of watching them grow into adults. I liked your conversational tone that made the rhymes feel natural. Best wishes in the contest!

What a lovely poem! You really capture what it is to have a young child and then to have adult children. ( wonder how that happens so quickly, sometimes.) Good luck with the contest.
