 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

Grandma 96 mostly bedridden
With a friends and a borrowed van
The wheelchair loaded, she was able to come
to our house and enjoy Christmas at home
Daughter in Laws Father, 86 also needed transportation
The older we get the better we was
My son announced he would take care of his Mom and Dad
Is this the future for me?
Actually I found the will to dance did a jig and felt young
At least until morning I didn't learn from military training
Never a good reason to show off!
Acculates to our children who made it happen
A year ago Grandson for Christmas wanted a guitar
This year he played "We Three King" came from a far
And all the standards memorized by ear
He had a surprise for Mom and Dad
He learned the song they requested at their wedding
He played both on the piano and guitar
The boy is more than a hockey star
Today all the familly but us are in San Diego
Wazzu is playing Minnesota, Go Cougs!
One a Junior, two graduated we are a Cougar family
Ryan a Cougar in heart is still undecided his school
Today the guitar is playing broken hearted melody
The Cougs and Seahawks are spoiling Christmas
Time to welcome in 2017
