Prompt 18 Liam James
18. Write a poem on love or the lack of it.

Liam James

Yesterday
You were the king of your universe
Today
There seems to be a new sheriff in town

That’s the way I expect it feels
To be a two year old
On the first day
Your baby brother comes home
From the hospital

Oh there’s plenty of love for you too
Plenty!
PLENTY!!!
But I don’t expect you to realize that
Just now

So
For these first few days
My lap is yours
Day or night
Night or day

(Note: Liam James is my first grandson. Today he met baby Jonas)
