Awesome Kid Grandma
Awesome Kid Grandma
It’s what my granddaughter calls me
When she writes of my deeds
She thinks I have super powers
The children at school ask me to
“Not tell the grownups”
I am young-at-heart, but they
think I am
just
young
I am an orange woman,
paisley, wearing love beads
Always open for business
Listening and learning
Waiting for you to give me a nod
Just a glimpse of what you need
For I am a rescuer, and I want to
rescue everybody
Since I was eight I have had dreams
of building a dog and cat sanctuary,
so they could all live.
I also dreamed of providing a home for mommies with babies.
Later recognizing that as a home for unwed mothers.
But at eight, that part was hidden from me.
