I Suddenly Felt a Great Happiness

I suddenly felt a great happiness-
The dream of so many years has come true
The one thing I wanted more than anything in the world
Has been given to me
A grandchild -
God has been so good to me
Why?
Who am I to deserve such blessing?
Still alive after all these years,
And with a daughter
Who now has a family of her own-
God Bless God, parents and children everywhere,
Israel.
