She was a tappin' to the tunes... of those Mississippi blues, step-pin' out, in her sexy... cowgirl leather boots, red white & blue, We were a watchin' her a prancin', all through the kitchen, dancin'... for she was so - hot & sizzlin'... hummin' to those Mississippi tunes... Funny curlers too, upon... her head-for a new - Hair dew, In her kitchen dancin' while... she was, a swirlin'-in that bakers apron, when her head...still a bobbin' to... those Mississip-pi blues, 'Pots were a knockin'... Grandma a sipin' & sockin' down all she brews, while that kettle there was whistlin', in har-mo-ny, with them good ole... good ole...miss-is-SIP-pi moves,' That floor there, was a bouncin' holdin' hands we were a jumpin', an-a hoppin' In the kitchen, to those... sounds ... Where Grandma's feet were a stompin', In her new...New - Cowgirl - sexy - fancy leather - Red, white, & blue Mississip-pi boots ... (yip pee)

Mmmm... I could picture this upbeat grandma. I'm a grandma, always dancing to the beat of rock and roll, dancing while cleaning, cooking and on the dance floor. What a groovy poem!!!
