Grandma

The fighting lulled for a moment We were waiting for grandma's comment "Oh my sons had fussed over their children" "Go to bed right now and read Mrs. Mildren" We were reading the buccaneers' tales Plundering ships,adventures in sails It was grandma's gift her own choice She sang, nature had gifted her with a fine voice She sang for us when pirates went to sleep In our dreams Mrs. Mildren's words creep She touched our hands we turned over in bed She kissed our heads moon eclipsed sun sneaked in red We came out of the room and she greeted "Hello boys" "O sure these two little imps would ride Rolls Royce" She is no more now she is sleeping in her grave She had hushed the stars her grandchildren are brave Contest Name : How You Make The Stars Hush Sponsor: Justin Bordner 7th March 2015
