Such a Treat

Our grandson had a party

To attend near where we live,

So a place to stay with Uber rides

Was what we had to give.

 

At 12 years old, Bar Mitzvahs beckon;

He’s a busy guy.

It’s hard to understand how fast

The years are zipping by.

 

Yet it was such a treat for us

To have him come to stay,

For even just the shortest time

With him can make our day.

 

To see the city through his eyes,

The place his dad was raised,

Is the part of nana-ing that leaves me

Happy and amazed.
