Grandmother Poems »
Even today, with all of the independent, cool, techno savy, cell phone texting, SUV driving, hard-working Grandmothers…somethings never change, thank goodness. We grandmothers are still rocking our grandchildren to sleep, or sitting with them on our lap while we read them a story… It’s those special one-on-one rocking moments that seem to stay with us, that bring grandmothers and grandchildren closer together.
Grandmother’s Rocking Chair
Grandma, hold me a little longer,
Rock me a little more.

(You’ve only told me four!)
Let me sleep on your shoulder.
I love your happy smile.
I’ll always …

Special Moments
A special moment…come and gone,
You smiled when you heard our song.
Don’t worry, now I’m here to stay,
I’ll hold your hand along the way.
You don’t have much farther to go,
Grandmother, I’ll miss you ever so.
Thank you for all that you have shown,
A lifetime of special moments…come and gone.

Grandmother Poems, Nana Poems »
When a grandparent passes, we show our grief in many different ways because we are different from one another. Nana is a special poem, not because it is entitled Nana, but because my mother-in-law, mother of 5, grandmother of 10, great-grandmother of 11, and great-great-grandmother of 4, will soon pass onto Heaven. Because she suffers from Alzheimers, she does not know that her children and grandchildren have visited, weeded her garden, planted her favorite summertime flowers, and said their goodbyes. They will miss her dearly, we all will but we believe she will be in a place where there is …

Grandfather Poems »
“Walk a little slower, Granddad,”
said the child so small.
“I’m following in your footsteps
and I don’t want to fall.
Sometimes your steps are very fast,
sometimes they’re hard to see.
So walk a little slower, Granddad,
for you are leading me.
Someday when I’m all grown up,
you’re what I want to be.
Then I will have a little child

And I would want to lead just right,
