I want to hold an umbrella over you head <br />I want to protect you from the stress and hurt ahead <br />But then I would take away the lessons that life conveys <br />It is your time to find a way through the bewildering haze <br /> <br />You search for someone who will make your life complete <br />You look into the eyes of a young man you randomly meet <br />Will your lives connect with love and compassion to share? <br />Does he have understanding? Will he always care? <br /> <br />The questions that I ask do not have conclusive answers <br />The rhythm of life will create a song for its dancers <br />Your exploration will have many auditions along the way <br />Each encounter is a step on a path to that magical day <br /> <br />In conclusion, I must trust and realize you are growing <br />We all have choices to make, sometimes without knowing <br />I pray that your journey will be protected by God above <br />Grandmother wishes you the best in your search for love<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/granddaughter-2/
