Grandparent Poem:
I remember soft and gentle hands
Reaching out to dry my tears
I remember warm and loving arms
That chased away my fears
Someone that I could run to
Who always made sure she was there
An ear that would patiently listen
Someone who always cared
There's something rare and wonderful
Gold placed in a grandmother's heart
Something he knew a child would need
Right from the very start
Heaven has a place reserved
For grandmothers sweet and kind
But I had a little Heaven on earth
In the grandmother I called mine

Grandparent Poem:
My Grandmother
by Laura Ramirez
Copyright © 2006
My grandmother's lap is soft and warm
Her eyes are bright and kind,
She hushes me with lullabies
And soothes my overactive mind.
She wakes me up for school each day
A twinkle in her eye
Her back is stooped and creaky
Yet her spirit's strong and spry.
I know sometimes her hips ache
As she whirls me across the floor
She says, "Life is meant for dancing"
As we waltz on out the door.
It's really just the two of us—my Gran and me
While mom and dad scurry here and there
Grandma teaches what they've forgotten:
Take Time, Enjoy, Show Love, Give Care.

One of life's greatest mysteries is how the boy
who wasn't good enough to marry your daughter
