I-Pod Granny

This poem is about a place, I-Pod Granny and "Good-Friend". Shawn, Britney and Nurse, You'll think it will never end! The place is MD Anderson. It's a wonderful place to be. I-Pod Granny and "Good-Friend" come often. She's getting well, you see. "Good-Friend" stays right beside her. He fills the place with cheer. Nurse says she's gonna "shoot him" But she loves it that he's here. Today "Good-Friend" felt poorly I-Pod Granny sent him out to nap. She would do the same during chemo She even "shed her wrap"! Nurse came to check on Granny And found "Good-Friend" not here. She thought, "Poor I-Pod Granny" Now her room has lost its cheer. But there inside Granny's bible She saw Shawn and Britney smiling - yes, from ear to ear. And she saw that just like "Good-Friend" They filled her room with cheer. I-Pod Granny told Nurse about family That is with her every day. One an itch, some as bookmarks Some in e-mails from far away. Some a phone call, some a visit Each in his own special way This family keeps Granny smiling Just like she is today. How did she become I-Pod Granny? Carter can tell you about that. But Nurse could see this family is special Where ever they are at. And "Good-Friend" has help when he needs it Whether they're close by or far away. They all keep Granny happy Just like Shawn and Britney did today.
