Poem Title:
Poem
My grandma is the most wonderful person in the universe. May 30th, 1924 is when this graceful woman entered earth. She battled through hardships and cried with joy had one beautiful daughter and two healthy boys She raised them able and taught them loyalty. Disciplined them strictly yet treated them as royalty. And if a husband and three kids were never enough, she took on two more when mom and Fots had it rough. I was very young when I met this elegant lady. No teeth in my mouth, I was just a newborn baby. The aroma of home-cooked dumplings with chicken fills every memory we were ever close to the kitchen. Board games free hugs and endless pumpkin pies are just the perks of a simple visit; even when surprised! Eyes in the back of her head and a quick slap of my hand each time I proportionally thought I had a leg to stand. Depression, World War II, Korea, Vietnam all long before my first experience as a man. Thank you for teaching me how to treat a woman right and appreciate each moment no matter what the fight. You continue to impress me with your positive way, of course you’d be walking into 93 this birthday! I love you Grandma – Happy Birthday!!!! xoxoxoxox 5/23/2017
