Mine are never good enough, but I ask myself if I will regret not taking the risk. And the answer is always yes. And, the more I write the better I get (I hope.) LIVE BIG.

I could see myself using it in a mini-lesson on how a character's actions tell who he/she is. This poem tells me a lot about this grandpa and his love for his granddaughter!
