Nieces

I watched my
Nieces grow up
Through childhood
Into young woman,
And now they are
Mature players on
The board of life.
They are formidable,
Each in her own
Unique way reminds
Me of family traits.
Each carries her
Memories and secrets
That make us all
Hesitate before we judge.
Each is headed into
The future armed with
A steady direction no
Longer at the whim
Of sudden winds,
Each has their own
Keen mind and
Experiences
To guide
Them.
Good
Company
For an
Old uncle.
