NEW PROMPT: Write a short story or poem that starts with the follow line: I feel so much older now. It can be about anything, but the beginning line must be as written.

LUCKY NOW!

I know that
I'm so lucky
now that I am
a great aunt

and I see
the family face
on these neat kids
grinning up at me,
expecting a small treat!

I've known these faces
all our lives,
but missed
some recent years; . .

now, seeing
these sweet ones
grow up,
KNOW I'M SO LUCKY NOW!
