Grandmothers Are Mothers Who Are Grand

  • Grandmothers are mothers who are grand,
  • Restoring the sense that our most precious things
  • Are those that do not change much over time.
  • No love of childhood is more sublime,
  • Demanding little, giving on demand,
  • More inclined than most to grant the wings
  • On which we fly off to enchanted lands.
  • Though grandmothers must serve as second mothers,
  • Helping out with young and restless hearts,
  • Each has all the patience wisdom brings,
  • Remembering our passions more than others,
  • Soothing us with old and well-honed arts.
