Second Innings - This is a collection of poems written for or from the point of view of an ageing person. <br />- <br /> <br />Toffees, toys and showering gifts <br />Oh, pampering has spoilt my grandkids. <br />My own kids were never this lucky <br />For then I had so much responsibility. <br />But now that my kids are settled <br />And they are the one’s that toil, <br />I can take it slow and enjoy my life. <br /> <br />But I need to make up <br />For the yearning to pamper <br />And for the lost time- <br />I can’t pamper my grown kids now, <br />But grandkids will be just fine. <br />‘Lucky brats’, these grandkids of mine! <br /> <br />(23 march 2007)<br /><br />.Pd. is here<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/spoiling-grandkids-second-innings/
