This is lovely. You have a way of capturing the mood and the feeling of love. We've just been blessed with a grandson, just a couple of months old at present, so these joys are yet to come.

All grandparents can relate to your great poem about the wonderful feeling our grandchildren give us. But it's not a temporary thing like a crush - it's forever! And when a second grandchild was born, I wondered could I love this one as much? - and the answer is yes!

    You are right. When I had my first baby I loved him so much that I was afraid I wouldn?t love the second one as much. She was born 17 months later and I loved her every bit as much as the first one. Silly fears we have. Thank you.

Sounds like true love all right. Congratulations. I'm not surprised he's the love of your life. What could be more adorable that a four-month-old baby boy who is YOUR grandson? Bravo! :)

Hi anon, Now that is what I call real love. When I first started the read I thought this was a love story with a difference - well it was, but I did not expect this. I love it. I identify - because I have experienced the feeling also. Good luck in the contest. If the judges feel as I do then you will win. Warm regards Dorothy x

Well, isn't this beautiful?
I can tell you are very smitten with junior and it's not hard to become infatuated with these tiny creatures.
I must say I have had two cases of instantaneous unconditional love and that was as I witnessed / experienced the birth of both my children.
Whilst I have had time to wipe the smile off my face as they are now 13 and 10 respectively, they STILL make me absolutely beam at certain times of the day.

You obviously have a special bond and it is evident in your fantastic poem. Well written.
Cheers P

PS Head over heels? Yep, you are gone, lady!! hahaha

Yes, it is something only a grandmother can really understand. Your poem explains an overwhelming love in sweet phrases and allows the reader to picture your joy. I think it is a really neat poem, I am a grandmother and know the feeling well. All the best, Laura.

    There is nothing like that feeling, is there? They live a plane ride away so it?s very hard for me. They were just here for five days. The day after they got home I called my daughter and said bring my baby back. She just laughed.

What a heart-warming, true love poem! I recall with great detail the first moments I laid eyes on each one of my children. It will be many years (hopefully) before I see a grandchild, but my own mother has said grandchildren are a whole new level. Congratulations on the handsome new man in your life. Blessings, MB

Well done with your non-sexual or romantic love poem. Eye contact, communication, physical play, all speak of the unbreakable love between you. Good luck with the contest.
