what do you guys think ?

[Dothemo]

I like it, it's a very pleasant story, 🙂 I liked the way a very vivid picture of the scene was painted, you are a good writer. Usually I can't read fiction because of poor concentration but that was easy to get into! Thanks for sharing @Former-Member 🙂

thanks @Dothemo glad you enjoyed it

I like how the story has a 'frame' with the start and end parts. It's cool how you chose the first moment of their meeting as the focus of the middle story. It also gave a good picture of Emily, what she might be like and moments from her everyday life. Great how you do this without having to explain - the plot is revealed through the details of the story. You write well, @Former-Member!

A space opens up

and I am swallowed.

It makes me lie down

to ease the sorrow.

There dreamer takes my hand

and leads me through dark forest,

and unconscious moon sends out its beam,

to send me home to wake tomorrow.

Another mood, another way,

even with fear not far away,

here to live another day.

A space opens up.

This year has so many changes

Within so many ranges

I still can't believe it's happening to me

As I smile and think wow gee

An old house we leave after so many years

I know it's going to bring lots of tears

But trying to think of my new home

And we bought it all on our own

As I wrap up each photo

I cry as the memories are so far away

Change is so hard to do

But I know I have to

This is the hardest thing for me 

to move out and just let it be

The pain is tough

and the ride is rough

And then the news of a little baby

It will change my life maybe

The vision I had a while ago

of holding a baby which made me glow

These changes are scary and exciting too

I just need to stay calm and be ready for you

I know once I've moved things will change

And hopefully they won't be in that range

Of heartache and sadness and depression days

I hope to have more of happy days

For I just cannot wait for that date

To move away from this old negative state

A poem for my unborn grandchild (due in October)

When I first heard the fantastic news

For an instant I got rid of my blues

I was in shock at first

And then came an almighty burst

Of joy, of laughter and tears as well

I just can't wait to hold you and tell

how much I love you 

and how much i will always be with you

To hold you in my arms will be

the best thing that has happened to me

to see you cute little face, your nose, your hair

I will sit there and just stare

For you will know that I will love you

as much as your mum and dad

and i will hold you and tell you that 

I will be the best nonna for you

I will play with you, read you books

and take you to the parks

we will swim and have fun

just the two of us

i will babysit you when your mum goes to work

oh how much fun that will be

i cannot wait for that day in October

to see your little face

I cannot express how much you mean to me

to have this bond between you and me

for i know that i will be the best nonna ever

and it will be me

The tears are rolling down my face

because i cannot share this news with others

for they have missed out and will lose

the best part of seeing you

To see your  heartbeat on the scan

there is life, there is you growing so much

i cannot wait to hold you in my arms

i know there'll be tears for you and your mum

your mum is so brave and beautiful too

she is caring and eating the right food for you

she will make a beautiful mum

cause I know I have been one

So let's wait and see when October arrives

God bless you little one and keep thriving to arrive

Keep growing and nurture all your self

For one day you will be in my arms
