Dear Grandmother,
Sometimes you seem tireless,
because even when the days are long,
your time is gladly spent,
keeping a warm and loving home
and making us content.
You have a gift to take those
little every day things,
wrap them up beautifully,
and share the blessings they bring.
And I find peace in your words
and comfort in your caress.
I'll always think of you
with admiration, love,
and tenderness.
I don't say it often enough,
I know,
but you're the place
in my heart
where a lovely garden grows.

Happy Mother's Day!
