Grandmother's Grace
I'd like to thank my other grandmother
For being something like a mother.
I always admire her endearing love
For all we grandkids, whom are gifts from above.
I'd have so many more loving words to say,
If we did more than live our own lives every day.
But regardless how much time spent or not,
So thankful for those sympathetic ears I often sought.
I'd love to be there for her, like she's been for me,
Fortunately, however, life seems to leave her be.
I have always loved my other grandmother,
But all too often I was too shy to show her.
I'd like to thank my other grandmother
For never seeing me as too much of a bother.
I've nothing but the greatest gratitude,
For all the things she's done, despite my attitude.
