LETTERS G AND Z
G is for grandma, whose name also starts with G
She is me
But Z starts the name of her granddaughter
Who fills grandma's day with laughter

Heart shapes,
Peeled grapes,
And mermaids,
These she love, and bead in her braids

Cotton candy, strawberry ice cream
Gummy worms seem,
Wiggly real, yet they taste yummy!

    I know something of the closeness that can exist only between a grandmother and granddaughter and the magic of that shines through in these lines.

    There ius nothing quite like having a beautiful granddaughter to make you thankful for your life. I immediately thought of my own as I was reading this.
