Notes About The Poem

Thanksgiving At Granma's Nursery Rhyme

Looking forward to tomorrow’s Thanksgiving dinner!
     Hosted by best chef in the world - my loveliest grandmother!
                      She will roast luscious veggies for us. 
                No restaurant in town can compete with her!
             
                  Brussels Sprouts? she broils the way I like it!
            Carrot soup - yummy and healthy, Cauliflower? The best!
                    Baked Salmon! Finger-licking, the greatest!
   Grandma’s coconut rice wins the trophy - we gulp until nothing’s left. 
              

     Corn Soup, barbecued Chicken, Pumpkin Pie…all mouth-watering good,
      most wonderful - hugs and kisses - an adoring family, and being grateful.

Anitha Jayasankar October 10, 2021 at 7:57 AM Such a beautiful Nursery rhyme dear Mala... Nothing like family time, getting together and having fun... devouring grandma's delicacies... your grandkids are SO lucky to have you as their grandma... and I just loved the last two lines... They say it all... Best wishes and hugs... ~ Ani Malabika Ray Choudhury October 10, 2021 at 9:29 AM Thank you, Anitha. You are so right - nothing like family-time. I still remember my grandma's aromatic cooking, and the delightful time I spent with her. I believe, I inherited my bookworm genes from my grandma!
