(a grandfather's benediction)

May you always walk a gentle bending path
And seek the blessings of the light

May you learn the tide of words
And see the essence of the leaves

May you sing the music of the years
And find the magic time of love

May you live long in happiness
And drink deep of the poetry of life

Congratulations! Your grandson is very lucky to have you, and he is going to grow up loved. I can just how much you're gonna love him through your poem. It was beautiful, and touching. As a new adult, it made me stop and think about what is truly important in life.

From an old grandparent to a budding one to be, one can feel the love and wonder that is to unfold for you. I really enjoy the anticipation and joy that is awaiting you in the flow and words you shared. Congrats - it is a glorious job to come. P
