Grandma, you bring joy and laughter into my world
Your smile is so bright it lights up my world
When I hear your sweet-sounding voice calling my name
I know it’s you right near my trail
When you read me stories and make me snacks
I love to see you dance all day around the peek-a-boo stack
Grandma, you’re a kind, sweet, and honest woman
Who stands strong despite what others may think
You carry yourself with dignity, courage, and pride
Hold on just tight that grandma my life will be just fine
Be sweet and be cool like a baby bumblebee
Fly away not too far so I can be with you, grandma
(In loving memory of Mary Magdalene Pate Howell)
