Barbara Temperton #17 - Boxing Day cricket match


   I help my second grandchild stay on her feet.

   She’s been through three kinds of crawling,
   sometimes stands upright, like now, before
   carefully seeking earth again with all fours.

   It’s the same method my ageing spine uses
   to get me down so we two can sit together
   on the beach and watch the cricket.

  1. Lovely. I particularly like the 'three kinds of crawling"
