Melissa Atienza Poet Rhyme

Granny Marjorie

Granny Marjorie,
Can be sometimes cranky

Granny Marjorie,
Loves to smoke her cigars and drink coffee

Granny Marjorie,
Has a friend named “TV”

Granny Marjorie,
Asks for pastry puffs when she’s hungry

Granny Marjorie,
Heard me play with Rosy

Granny Marjorie,
Remembered good memories with Monty

Granny Marjorie,
Seemed so happy 

Granny Marjorie,
Smiled and looked at me, “Don’t grow old my young lady.”


(Granny Marjorie is 90+ years old and as dementia.)

Sara Kendrick August 24, 2009 at 10:45 AM I would love to meet this Granny. I bet she has the longevity gene. Sounds like the perky person that would make people laugh. I loved the presentations and the Rhyme here. Keep writing. Sara
