A GRANDCHILD GIVES NEW HOPE IN LIFE <br /> <br />A grandchild gives new hope in life <br />An old man plays and says nonsense <br />And is happy again- <br /> <br />A little smiling child <br />Who does not know or understand <br />Who cannot speak to me <br />Gives me hope again <br />And makes me forget <br />All my failed ambitions- <br /> <br />Because this small child lives <br />I regain my love of life- <br /> <br />What a blessing to be <br />A grandfather in my old age.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-grandchild-gives-new-hope-in-life/
