Hello Teri. Thank you for your sparkling comments. I am delighted you liked this little Minute poem and the verse about my grandson. Hugs!

Comment from Sue Smith
Such a sweet poem. And such a universal feeling that all doting grandparents can relate to. I just wasn't sure about the use of 'twinkles' in the first line. It may just be a difference in where we live but in the UK we'd say there's a twinkle in someone's eye rather than use the plural, and it made me pause and think about it rather than just getting on and enjoying the poem - which was very enjoyable otherwise.

Beautiful! My grandsons are grown and making their own way now and my kids are knocking on the doors of midlife. I don't miss the struggles of raising our children, but I miss that wonder of their beginnings. Wonderful poem. Thanks for sharing it. Have a great week and stay well.

This minute poem, Twinkling Eyes, has the proper formatting and reminds the readers that babies have all the moves and all the sounds which direct us to them.

What a heartwarming poem! I love how your words capture the joy of a baby's early milestones with such tenderness. The imagery of twinkling eyes to Nana is delightful. You've beautifully shared the love and happiness that surrounds this precious little one. What a lucky baby!
