Grandparents Meet A Need

Grandparents meet a need
That no one else can fill;
They’re always kind and gentle;
They love you and always will.
They have plenty of time to listen,
To encourage and to care;
When others are too busy,
Grandparents are always there.
They have delicious foods;
There’s always something cooking;
They feed you scrumptious tidbits,
When no one else is looking.
They take you special places;
They’re never in a hurry.
They soothe you when you’re troubled,
And help you not to worry.
They buy you things you want,
Even things that you don’t need;
"Do what makes them happy!"
Is every grandparent’s creed.
They focus on your good points,
And overlook each flaw;
How could we do without
Our grandma and grandpa?
Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma,
For giving life a special shine;
I’m glad to have grandparents,
And happy you both are mine!
