The First Time I Met Them

Waiting on the plane

So very happy, I jumped right off of it

Bummed as we have to take a car

It has been almost a two hour wait

I look at the sign reading Cape Cod

I know we are almost there

 

As I think what they look like

We finally get there

I jumped out of the car

Feeling the gravel under my feet

The porch light was on

I run so fast, feeling like the speed of light

They are on the porch, rocking in their chairs

 

I give them a big hug as we walk in the home

Army badges are hung right above the fireplace

I walk up to the steps in my room

As they kiss me good night, I look at the moon

 

As the sun shines bright

I come down to smell of sweet bacon

After we are done

My grandparents take me to the secret river

As we pass through, we end up at the beach

After a day of water and fun they take me for some ice-cream

We watch the sun set with its glow

When we get back home they tuck me and say goodnight
