Welcome to Clare Whitbeck’s Website - Grandchildren
Home I Boat I



There are three of them, and now all are three
They are always close, yet so far away.
They all say "Gamma!" with a big smile when they see me.
One plays a joke and hides. Then comes running to me.
When I leave, they hug me and look very sad.
One held out his hand and said, "I come."
He and his sister have now come to gramma's house.
I am glad.
Now they are four
So much older
Princesses and a race car driver
always ready to play
and to negotiate for a movie or a snack
Hurry up winter
I want to go out to play.
Indoor swimming
is not same
as swimming outdoors.
There are no squirrels or songbirds
to play overhead.
But there is the wonderful water.
Hurry up sping
I wnat to swim.
