Pifcho 111908-32494 prr hm GRANDMA'S HOME I remember times in my childhood. Times at Grandma's Home. The door that was always open A place to call my own; Separate from the world outside Secure and just for me. I'd loose my day to day troubles Sitting on Grandma's knee. She'd kiss my childish tears away, I wouldn't feel like a fool.

And we'd laugh as she'd tell me stories Of her younger days at school. She'd give me cookies before supper when no one else could see And I cant remember when She didn't have time for me. And as I kneel each week at her graveslte I pray she knows I'm here.
