Granny Garbanzo

I don’t know where you came from
Could not even take a guess
Did you jump off of a train car?
Are you from the Wild West?

You’re wearing a sombrero
And a pair of running shoes
You’re dancing the bolero
And reading local news

You brought me homemade cookies
And some milk to wash them down
Of course I’ll have some hard candies
You’re the coolest granny in town!

Nice writing about your grandmother. Both of my grandmothers passed away in the seventies.
