    GRANDMA

    GRANDMA

     She may act a little crazy
    And her memory may seem hazy
    But I can assure you she is sharp as any tack
    When you think that she's not looking
    'Caus she's way to busy cooking
    Don't be fooled, she can see out of her back

    With her vacuum she’s a whirling
    As she’s singing and a twirling
    You would almost think that she was having fun
    What puzzles me the most
    Is that she’s deaf as any post
    But say any forbidden word and best you run

    She can cook, clean and baby-sit
    Crochet, knit and make pants fit
    She can fix a broken toy or grant a dream
    She carries candies, Kleenex, pens and pins
    And knows which apron pocket each is in
    And bakes cookies for our losing baseball team

    Her hugs can mend a broken heart
    And assure the world hasn’t fallen apart
    There are still so many more fish out in the sea
    She sees the good in worst of times
    Her faith could make the church bells chime
    And all her services come absolutely free

    "When a child is born, so are grandmothers"

    This is wonderful. I am grandmother myself and I am a bit different from one you described but I am sure in the eyes of my grand children I am similar to your character. This poem is so heart worming and it is very well written also

    what a wonderful tribute to grandmothers. Mine fell into some of the categories, but it also reminded me ot other grandmother's I had grown up around. I loved the nostalgic feeling your poem gave me.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
