Down the neighborhood is someone very special Titled fondly grandma -the root to the family Who bore your mother or father when you were nil And yet still lived to love you more in times Than your own parents, brothers and sisters.
Grandma, is the one that cut your umbilical cord While in a haste to pronounce you a boy or girl With a deep heart’s love all over her self And an unending smile, she pats your back Ready to send you in this world of struggle.
With your first cry, she knows who you are She kisses and blesses you for a life long journey Praying that you will be luckier than all the family And in her, she held onto a special prayer for you Confined within the family over ages of time.
O my grandma! O my grandma! O my grandma! Please accept my token of few lines to you In appreciation for all your love, kindness and favors And may the Almighty God reward you for all things Till we see! Till we see! Till we see!
