PAD 25-1 Exile, Poem Away Pushkin sonnet


Exiled from my Peers

I’m sixty years of age with children—grown.
They’re happily unmarried—my complaint.
Will I be blessed with grandkids of my own?
To have this patience takes complete restraint.
While others smile with glee and show their pics,
I caregive some to get my grandma fix.
This has been going on for many years.
I’m feeling like I’m exiled from my peers.

I try to be content, not down and blue.
I’m thankful for my family and friends.
I have so many blessings without end.
But I’ve a case of grandma envy, too.

I’m sixty years of age with children—grown.
Will I be blessed with grandkids of my own?
