Best Gracie Poems

Gracie and Frankie were frogs,
who were sitting on two ends of a log.
They met in the middle,
and started to fiddle,
now their tadpoles all swim in a bog.

I think you have
An old soul inside
That reveals itself
Only to me
You embrace me
Knowing that 
I need you to
Girl of my womb
Your hair soft
Under my nose
And you squeeze 
Me so tight
As if you've known
Me longer than
Your six years
Your old soul
Warming mine...

One o'clock in the morning,
we connect by phone, 
Chicago to Boston. I tell you 
about the ugly tomatoes I bought, 
your in hysterics. Listen, I say, 
they have a their own web site; 
take them seriously. 
We head to the fruit 
while you read me...

Hush little Gracie
Don't make a peep,
Momma's gonna hold you 'till you fall asleep.
In her arms snuggled and warm,
Sleeping so peacefull through the storm.

Pitter,Patter of the rain falling.
Don't make a sound and listen to the wind calling.
Swish,Swish sound of the wind blowing through,
Laying in the bed...

Many things about you 
Make the tenderest 
Parts of me sigh
The way your feet
So tiny curl and spoon
Each other when you sleep
Just as they did almost
Four years ago as you
Tossed in my womb
As if when your mind
Is unconscious of the world
It returns to the safest 
Place and reminds...

I have a young niece and Gracie is her name...
And since she has been in my life I haven't been the same.

She just turned seven and is growing like a weed...
And she brings excitement to life that her grand parents need.

She loves school and is...

Oh sweet pet, I miss you so,
For you got old and had to go;
I think of all the happy days
You were part of me in so many ways.

We took so many joyful walks,
And had so many important talks;
You were always ready to greet the day,
Always...

Find here a tribute to one of the cleverest gals
To ever grace a show biz locale

   She mused that parties 'stand' for a platform
   For which voters 'fall' by the swarm...

Memories of Gracie Fields linger
As someone who gave people the finger
Gracie felt defeated
Cheers were deleted
As the Brits took offence as she lingered
