Stretch out your hand.
He did so and the hand was better.
Our life and health run into the sand.
Gradually without regret we must let go of this tether.

I am sitting with my granddaughter.
She is playing quietly with her Lego.
A happiness high water.
No room here for inflated ego.

One day we will stretch out our hand.
It will be taken gently.
And then we can rest with everything grand.
Then there will only be the now and no consequently.

That moment may or may not happen soon, no matter.
But for the moment, I’m happy playing with my granddaughter.

Granddaughter playing
An instant in happy time
Savour the moment
