279 Rocky, Rocky

Grandma cradles grandson,
rocking in the night.
The old clock unlocks.
Thirty years are gone.

Mommy cradles daughter,
rocking in the night,
while the new clock tocks
in rythum with her delight.

There are moments, gifts from heaven,
when decades, seconds, cease.
When all that’s left are memories,
bathed in midnight.
