I Hold My Ground

The blue eyes turn into missiles She is upset with me I am her grandma I have no right to say no But I do not want her unsafe She holds my heart in her tiny palm She tries to get me to give in I hold my ground The pouting lip comes out I cannot help the laughter She looks exactly like her mother now
