Questions

by Akifah Abdin aged 9

I am old and helpless
you are young and inquisitive,
Everyday you ask me questions

Some I cannot answer,
Some are upsetting,
reminding me of the past

Though in my heart I believe
you and I will forever be together
Nonetheless, I’m old and as your
grandmother I may falter and someday
I will be floating above
watching your every step
