My Grandpa

Mariah Lee

My Grandpa is the best by far,
He's loving, kind, and good.
He always gives me wise advice,
He's always understood.

Whenever I need him,
He's always there for me.
He says life has a purpose,
Just you wait and see.

My Grandpa does remind me
Of God's unending grace.
I believe him as he says this,
For love lights up his face.

My Grandpa's always faithful
To Grandma, his special wife.
They've been together lovingly
For almost their whole life.

Whenever Grandpa's laughing,
Grandma laughs along.
When they laugh together,
It sounds like a sweet, sweet song.

One day when I grow up,
And I am old and gray,
I hope to be like Grandpa
In each and every way.

Grandparent Rap

Author Unknown

It's Grandparents' Day and we're here to say,
"We love our Grandparents in a major way."

So sit right down and take a seat,
And we'll put on a show that can't be beat!

Some Grandparents are skinny. Some eat a lot.
Some are funny. Some are not.

Some short, some tall, some big, some small.
It doesn't matter. We love them all.

Grandma's Off Her Rocker!

Author Unknown

In the dim and distant past,
When life's tempo wasn't fast,
Grandma used to rock and knit,
Crochet, tat and baby sit.

When we were in a jam,
We could always count on gram.
In the age of gracious living,
Grandma's life was one of giving.

Now grandma's at the gym,
Exercising to keep slim,
She's off touring with the bunch,
Or taking all her friends to lunch.

Driving north to fish or hike,
Taking time to ride her bike.
Nothing seems to block or stop her,
Now that grandma's off her rocker.

Grandparents' Advice

Mary R. Hurley

Don't pamper the baby,
Don't run to each cry;
Don't rock that new infant
And don't lullaby;

Don't coddle or cuddle,
That's all there is to it!
Don't spoil that sweet baby
Let us grandparents do it!

A Poem for My Grandpa

Unknown Author

My Grandpa, you are so special to me,
You teach me to be happy and free.
I love spending our fun days together,
We always find a new adventure.

You don't mind answering my questions
You pick me up and carry me high.
My Grandpa, you take the time to teach,
And let me see things above my reach.

With you, I always feel safe and secure,
I'll love you forever, ever more.
We say goodbye with a hug and kiss,
As I make a big, big special wish...

My wish for you, Grandpa, please, please don't go.
Why? Because I love, love, love you so

A Great Grandmother

Author Unknown

Someone who will understand
who knows the way I feel
In every situation
her concern is very real.

Someone who has walked my ways,
who knows my every need.
Times when she would see me cry,
her heart would nearly bleed.

Everyone should have a great grandmother
just the way I do.
Richly blessed is what I am
to have a great grandmother like you!

Never Ending Love

Unknown Author

From early in the morning,
Until I go to sleep each day,
I know my grandparents love me,
In a very special way.

Sometimes it's tea and crackers,
Sometimes a walk in the park,
Sometimes it's just a hug 
when I'm scared and in the dark.

I love to hear their stories,
About the past and where they're from,
And I know their hearts are filled for me,
With never ending love.

And Grandma's Too...

Author Unknown

While we honor all our mothers
with words of love and praise.

While we tell about their goodness
and their kind and loving ways.

We should also think of Grandma,
she's a mother too, you see....

For she mothered my dear mother
as my mother mothers me.
