worrisome
every first is worrisome
may be marriage
or birth of a son
or the fist one to have become
a parent under the sun
the first one to have a grand child
so mild
maybe a grand son or grand daughter
it should not really matter
but first worry of the parent is natural
as the child is the miracle
the first one ever
for you me or anyone
worrisome
on this occasion
we shan't add death
its bad
a human ransom
Comments
I suspect
that my poem "Worry" may have inspired this one a little. Anyway that is neither here nor there, because this poem is complete in its own right and neatly defines the way we tend to think we're the first person to go through certain life-changing experiences. The novelty of being a grand parent hasn't really sunk in yet in my case, perhaps because I've only seen the baby in photos.
Best wishes,
Robert.
