grandma carol

I shouldn’t even call you grandma, you’re more like a mother, Held me when no one else could, unlike any other. Kindergarten mornings, you fixed my hair just right, A little blush, a little love, made my world so bright. 67 years with grandpa, side by side, Taught me how to love a man, how to shine with pride. You even did my homework when I couldn’t get it done, A strong woman, a fighter, you’re second to none. I’ll think of you every time I drink a Pepsi, Your beauty, your cooking, and your love will always be with me. I hope you know it’s okay to let go, be free, But you’ll live in my heart for eternity. You raised all your grandchildren, like we were your own, Taught us how to be strong, how love can be shown. Your kitchen smelled like heaven, every meal made with care, Your strength and your courage are beyond compare. Even through the hardest times, you never let me fall, You were my mother, my teacher, my all. Grandma Carol, your love is a flame, And I’ll carry it forever, always calling your name. I’ll think of you every time I drink a Pepsi, Your beauty, your cooking, and your love will always be with me. I hope you know it’s okay to let go, be free, But you’ll live in my heart for eternity.
