"YOU HAVE ARRIVED"


On an April day

on a Spring day

High on the snowed mountains

of South Lake Tahoe

near Emerald Bay

you arrived...


My grandson

wanted and waited for

your big blue eyes

search for the light

and your little hands

clasp grandma's pinky


Little sweet boy

you arrived in a day

when the birds

were arriving home

after a long trip

across the planet


As they sang happily

on the branches

safe in their blue lake

so you are safe in the

arms of your grandma
