Love Poem: Precious Heart

Precious Heart

I watch you run across a field of green
You're fleet afoot in a joy of freedom
I hear your laughter, it arrives unseen
I anticipate a big hug to come
You are my precious and flowing vein
Tied to my heart as a grand-daughter is
Richness of your smile I hope you sustain
Through every trial that a life always gives
I will give comfort to your saddest tears
And tell you stories of my life well lived
Speak to you about facing all your fears
And teach you the strength to always forgive
There's no one closer or dearer than you
I crumble each time your eyes turn blue
