Grandma would always bring out old photos whenever we stopped by for a visit. She favored
                         Ice Cream and always had a treat waiting for her grandchildren.





                                                   Grandma’s Poem


                                            Mercy look at all these children

                                               With a twinkle and a smile
                                            Why don’t you take your hat off

                                                  We’ll visit for a while


                                             I was looking at some pictures
                                                 Oh you remember that

                                              Those funny looking outfits
                                               And Grandpa with his hat


                                            Would you like some ice cream?

                                                I have your favorite kind
                                          Perhaps you’d like some strawberry

                                              It’s right here next to mine.


                                             Every story brought a chuckle
                                                I’ll bet you’d never guess

                                           Mirthful tales of Auntie Carolyn,
                                                 Bernice and Uncle Wes.


                                              Why thank you for the visit

                                             Sure seems like quite a while
                                            Mercy  look at all these children

                                             Their twinkle and their smile.
