Grandma's house, full of warmth and joy,
A place that's full of love and toys.

Each time it's something sweet and tasty.

Nana's Love

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Cookies and treats, a childhood delight,
Nana's house, a place where everything's right.
With every visit, the joy takes its flight,
In her warm embrace, all fears take their flight.

In the kitchen, she works her magic so fine,
Baking cookies and treats, in a straight, perfect line.
Her culinary love, a secret divine,
Filling the air with a scent so benign.

Nana's a lady who's sweet and so kind,
A heart full of love, a gentle, old mind.
In her company, happiness we find,
Her wisdom and care, to our hearts are entwined.

It's the place where stories and laughter combine,
Her home, a haven, where love does entwine.
With cookies and treats, in memories, we bind,
Nana's love, a treasure, a love so benign.

My Nana, a woman of energy and grace,
A smile on her face, a warm embrace.
As sweet as sugar, not a trace of lemon's sour,
Her love's a blooming garden, an ever-blooming flower.

Grandma's house is filled with love,
A cozy place from up above.
It's a world where I'm always carefree,
And Grandma makes sure there're special treats for me.

Where I can relax and don't have to hide.

Always happy to see me so full of pride.

She listens to my stories and tales,
We laugh together and share our own fails.

The Joys of Being A Grandma

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2018

The joys of being a Grandma are many
Life has not brought a memory of any
That can compare to being a Grandmother
It is an experience like no other

Holding that baby, seeing them grow
Playing with them and running to and thro
The excitement on their face when they see
Me walk through the door fills me with glee

A love that is so strong, and the absolute bond
Never would I have imagined or even dawned
That being a grandma could bring such joys
I thank God above for these special girls and boys!

forever loved, forever in our hearts. Grandma you will be missed Poems About Grandma For Funeral

Missing Grandma

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2019

My Grandma, she was very special to me
Whenever she saw me she smiled with glee
No matter what she was doing
When I walked through the doors she was cooing

My memories of her are cherished
My time with her more precious
Her love and encouragement will stay with me
She encouraged me to happy and just be

When troubling times came my way
She always had a listening ear no matter the time of day
She celebrated my success too
Like all Grandmothers do

My life will not be the same anymore
My Grandma, I did adore.
But sad I will not be
As she is in heaven with God and her I will see!

No Matter What

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

No matter what, no matter when
My Grandma's a comfort and some then
She would do anything
For happiness to bring.

She says never give up when I tried
She encourages me to swallow my pride
When mistakes I make
She says, "Fix them before it is too late."

She's like a second Mom
To me and everyone.
She's like a best friend
Solid and with me to the end.

Good to me was fate
As my Grandmother is great!

A Cheer For Grandma

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Grandma, you deserve a cheer
We love you for that have no fear
You are truly one of a kind
Of that, we want to remind!

You make us laugh, you make us smile
For us, you always go the extra mile.
We often say we love you more
But then who is keeping score!

Who Is The One

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Who brings cookies and treats to you
Who thinks you're great in all you do
Who is the one who doesn't care
If you wake up like a bear.

Who loves you unconditionally?
Who always makes you so happy
Who is the one who wants for your success
And always wants to see you filled with happiness.

Who is the one who is always caring
Who is the one that is always sharing
Who is the one who soothes the frights
And will stay up with you all night.

Who is the one that with bubbles will blow
Who is the one who will play in the snow
Who is the one that always smiles
And pushes you to go that extra mile.

Who is the one that always guides
Who is the one that shows so much pride
Who is the one whom I have such a bond
Why it is - Grandma that I am so fond.

Always There

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Nana, you always had time for me
To read a book or just let me be.
You're never said another day
You were always willing to sit down and play

And now the years are passing by
And our age seems to multiply
But our love for you will always be
So strong for you to see

Over the years
We shared some tears
But we always saw the sun
And always had so much fun

Thank you, my Grandmother, for loving me
You're the best Grandmother that could be!

Sunshine To My Life

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

The days of the past
Seemed to have gone so fast
But memories we each have
And for that I am glad
A grandmother like you
Keeps us all from being blue
In me you always see, and in me,
You always believed
You built me up when giving up
Is what I want to do
You bring sunshine to my life,
I am glad you are mine.
In case I have not said it enough over the years
I love you Grandma and think of you as dear.

You built me up when giving up is what I want to do You bring sunshine to my life Grandma Poems For Mothers Day

Grandma's are what make life nice.

To guide us and a listening ear

Grandmas Are

Poet: Unknown

Grandmas are for stories
About things of long ago.
Grandmas are for caring
About all the things you know.

Grandmas are for rocking you
And singing you to sleep.
Grandmas are for giving you
Nice memories to keep.

Grandmas are for knowing
All the things you're dreaming of
But, most importantly of all,
Grandmas are for love!

A Big Thank You

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

Oh, Grandma, I love you so,
Your love and guidance always show.

You’re always there for me with a strong embrace,
I need not doubt you and your wise grace.

Your unwavering loyalty guides me from strife,
To make the right decisions in life.

I think about you often, Grandma dear;
Your care and wisdom so clear;
Your lessons of life and love offered true;
Profound advice that I still pursue.

You're the rock that steadies my course -
An ever-shining light, like a torch;
Helping me through times good and bad:
In you, I feel nothing will make me sad.

In my heart your place will always remain;
You're an amazing Grandma in life's domain;
My treasured memories with you abound;
Your love surpasses all around.

Grandmother's Baby

Poet: Margaret E. Sangster

Thirty years ago, my baby,
A baby just like you,
With golden fluff in silken rings,
And shining eyes of blue,
Came like a little angel,
To fill my life with love,
His dimpled hand was stronger then
Than all the hosts above.

But 'ere I knew it, baby,
So fast the swift years ran,
My darling was a romping lad,
And then a bearded man.
My darling went a-wooing,
In honest joy and pride ;
And as his father did before,
He brought him home a bride.

And I, a foolish mother,
Felt somehow left alone;
And the boy who was my first-born son
Seemed not so much my own.
"We mothers are so jealous,
So selfish, I'm afraid;
With so much earthly leaven.
Our scales are often weighed.

Now here are you, my baby,
Son of my son, so fair,
The hope of all our household,
Of all our line the heir.
Prince Royal; little comfort;
There ne'er was babe so sweet;
From golden head and violet eyes,
To darling dainty feet.

Thirty years ago, my baby,
I tell it in your ear,
Another nursling, just like you,
Came from the angels here.
I lost him in the whirlpool
Of the rough world long ago;
And now the angels bring him back —
That's why I love you so!

Grandymother Says

Poet: Lucy Scott

When Grandymother was a child,
A long, long time ago,
She says there were no motor-cars.
It's funny if it's so.

She says the busses used to have
Bright pictures on the side.
And did not go to Central Park,
Just think what a short ride!

And then they called them "stages,"
And in winter they had sleighs.
But now they clean the snow away,
I don't like all new ways.

But we can go up on the Drive
And see the river there,
A man named Hudson found it first.
It must have made him stare!

I don't think that she knew him,
My Grandmother, I mean,
But then of course she's very old,
And lots of things has seen.

Her hair is very nearly white.
And she's very busy too.
Because we children always make.
So many things to do.

There were not any trolleys then.
They only had horse cars.
And instead of all the steamships
There were vessels with great spars.

(I wonder what she means by "spars"
And didn't they have steam?
She talks so very quickly.
It's like a running stream!)

Grandmothers with twinkling eyes and hearts so bright, Share passions and hobbies in the soft moonlight. Poems From A Grandmother To Her Granddaughter

Grandmother, You Are

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

In Grandma's eyes, love sprinkles bright,
Her joy for children takes flight.
Never a frown upon her face,
Always greeting with warm embrace.

Her heart, a wellspring of delight,
For girls and boys, so polite.
In Grandma's sprinkle love we find,
A treasure pure and kind.

Grandmother, You Are

Poet: Unknown

Grandmother, you are like a patchwork quilt
So cozy and warm.
Just the smell of coffee
Reminds me of your wisdom and charm.

I know I can always come to you
When lost or alone.
For you always comfort me
And make me feel at home.

You are the silver lining of a cloudy day.
And I know whom can trust
When clouds blow my way.
Grandmother, your hugs and kisses
Will be stored in my heart each day.

Grandma

Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

special things
