A WISE OLD WOMAN'S FABLE
Listen to the wisdom of an old woman
You will find what experience sounds like
I have seen all and knowledge of all
I won’t always be around
While I am living, I will share my pointers
Grandson, I want your feet planted firmly on solid ground
Be the Adult I always told you were meant to be
Be independent and courageous
Depend on no but yourself guided by God’s assurance and influence
“Every battle there is victory at the end”
Step out and on
Every footstep is the journey gained in learning
When you fall pick yourself up
Anticipate life’s ups and downs
Finding yourself who you are
Know that you are never alone
No matter where nor how far
You are enriched in the harmony and rhythm from your very creation
Take it from Grandma from my own experience
Today’s uplift
Tomorrow’s praise ongoing
Always be ready holding steady
Grandma will always be waiting at every Airport, Bus Station and Train Station for your arrival to the pearly gates
I want to see you in where I am
Love, Grandma
