Debi, this gives me such a beautiful glimpse into your family and world! What a special treasure to have family so close and even more than that the love you all share. Which is no surprise when you are such a lovely and welcoming person Debi!! I would be so honoured to have a poem such as this written of me. The words are so heartfelt and honest. You have such a knack of story telling within your rhyme and meter it is just wonderful to read.

Comment from bob cullen
What a delightful write to your daughter-in-law. Wish I had a mum-in-law like you. How's that for sucking up. Truly though, this is a beautiful write. I hope you showed it to her.
Love the sound and planning of the bridge. Bet the Grandkids use it regularly.

Comment from Liz O'Neill
The image of the metaphor of "Bridge" is all encompassing in this account. You enhance the characters with sweet metaphors. This is very poignant. Nice expressed.

This is so beautiful both in verse, presentation and

I truly enjoyed reading.

Comment from CrystieCookie999
This is a very affectionate poem of tribute. My favorite lines were: His smile said it all, that you were the one
And as time went by, you'd complete us. I think you can capitalize grandma's in this line:
To grandma's, for playtime & more
That is just because it would be what the grandsons are calling you personally. But if you said "To their grandma's, for playtime and more" then you wouldn't need to capitalize it.

Comment from Write Right Writer
This is lovely, Debi...
I feel like I'm getting to know your entire family and am so happy that they are close with you (and I imagine with each other). It's probably your heartfelt poems that bind your entire family together.
The MIL-DIL relationship is often tricky but it appears you (and Mel) have navigated it with grace and aplomb. And the bridge over the creek story is priceless. What a great "connecting" point for your family.
Thanks for writing. Thanks for sharing.
Blessings...

Comment from LateBloomer
Oh Debi, this poem is absolutely beautiful. I can feel the love that you have for Melanie and the pride and joy that their family has brought to you. I especially liked:
I love you as if, you were my very own
A daughter, you are in my eyes
(Debi, you and your family have been blessed. They make a handsome couple.)
Silky rhyming. Beautiful photo. A pleasure to read. Keep the blue waters flowing. I'm sorry that this poem got buried in my email.
Keep the blue waters flowing. Xo. M
