Granddaughters spice up the day.
They brings giggles
in pink toenails,
tea parties
in dresses oversized.
Cheers you each day
with two pom poms.
Heals you
in a homemade nurses cap.
Loves you
with a heart overflowed.
Grandsons are spicy too.
They brings laughs
in muddy shoes,
tea parties
with real food.
Cheers you each day
with a laugh and a smile.
Heals you
with a homemade stethoscope.
Loves you
without regret.
Spices sweet, spices bitter sweet.
So much alike, but
they are different too.
One kisses
with colorless sweet lips,
while the other
holds your cheeks with dirty hands.
Each tender kiss
fills a grandmother’s heart
with so much pride
and much more love.
