Grandma
Who could be so loving and caring to me
if not you grandma.
Your love and care encircle me every moment
right from when I was a kid
and even now that I'm becoming a man.
As a kid,I remember you
bathing me and scrubbing me so hard because
you didn't want any germ on your grandchild
and even now that I'm becoming a man,
you still play and joke with me
as if we are in the same age group.
Grandma,you are old,
yet you still have the strength
and will of a young person.
With your untiring strength and vigour
you are always willing
to help me in my household chores.
Grandma,you have done so much for me that
I can't quantify everything nor qualify them
with words.
I love you and promise to make you proud.
You will surely see the fruits of your labour.
Its pleasant being your grandchild.
Thank you grandma.

Her things were divided
That thing and this
Some got excited
And grabbed as they wish
They went through her dressers
Her
She placed the dime inside my hand and closed my fingers tight.
Then whispered ‘Keep it secret’ and I whispered
She was my favourite person
She was my dearest friend
I never thought the day would come
When the closeness would end
She was
Grandma's house was full of people
Around Thanksgiving time
There was more food in that one place
Than I have room to rhyme!
